Will the virtual server still operate if I exit the client terminal?

Yes, of course, that's the point of using it aynway.

You don't have to keep your PC open 24/7 and you don't get power or internet outages.

I know, I know.  I actually felt embarrassed asking the question.  Better to be 100% certain than 99%.

Thank you

You are right, better safe than sorry!

 

Dear friends,

I've rented a VPs for my MT4 account (MQL5 New York 9). I'd like to confirm if its works properly, and apparently I see contradictory informations at my desktop.

On one hand, when I consult the details info it says "Ping MQL5 New York 9 at ICMArkets-Live05 - 2.45ms", which seems pretty good ot me.

On the other hand, when I click at the bottom right of the platform a long list of servers appears, and one is selected: "Live05.NY.01 152.94ms", which doesn't seem good at all.

What am I losing? I think I don't understand well what this last information means... Anyone can help me on this?

Thank yo very much!!!

Your VPS ping is 2.45ms and your local terminal's connection to your server is 152.94ms, these are 2 different things.

Thank you very much Eleni.

In order to guarantee that the trades of an EA are executed "right on time", the important number is the VPS ping, right? If I have the EA+signals migrated, the terminal's connection to my server time shouldn't be important... Is that true?

Yes, exactly.

 
how many advisors can be connected to one VPS?
 
Hello, I have changed the account in the Hosting tab but still cannot associate it in MT4. It wants me to pay again/more. What is the right way to get to the existing hosting in a new MT4 account?
