vps latency and trader location

 

Hi there


I rented a vps for metatrader 4 and the vps is based in the netherlands, but after checking the ip of the Irish  trader it is a server in USA.


im located in netherlands, spain or bali

So now what? To reduce latency i figured i could move the vps to datacenter near to the trader server, but that would increate the latency of my rdp session right?

So for manual trading it would not have any positive effect i imagine. For automatic trading it would probably help


Whats your opinion about this?

  • If you are talking about MQL5 VPS for MT4/MT5 so the location of those VPS is near the broker's server/data center - read the post #872 for more information.
  • If you are about any external VPS so the discussion of those VPS is prohibited (means: no one knows about ...).

Of course, you can ask any question.
But the promotion of any external VPS (incl deep discussion with recommendation of any VPS) is prohibited.
