Use MQL5 VPS to reduce delay/ping to ~50 ms for MT4 and around 2 - 10 ms for MT5.
And ask all your potencial subscribers to do the same.

There Problem in My Server mql5 In ( ms ) !!

Order processing below 5ms is usually reserved for high rolling traders doing High Frequency Trading with specialised software and direct connections to liquidity providers.

I doubt you will ever find any MetaTrader broker able to do that speed, especially not with MetaTrader 4. The response times you are getting are actually quite good for MetaTrader 4.

Please don't mix up your concepts. 2ms may be for the Ping response time, or in other words, the latency of the network communication.

However, there is much more that the server has to do besides the network response, and it all depends on the type of market, the symbol being used, the volatility of the market or the amount of traffic at the time.

However, your values of 60-100ms seem totally normal when including the time required for order processing.

This is exactly what's happened.

Ping is a time which take a packed from VPS server reach to Broker's server.

Better ping means better execution.

BUT in addition to ping time, broker need some time to execute your order. ~50 ms is normal execution time for MT4 systems.

If you want more speed - find MT5 brokers, as MT5 has around 1-2 ms internal latency.
