Metaquote VPS is only for MT5. Is that correct? Does MT4 signal from the market work with MT5 platform? Instruction are unclear. Any detailed videos step by step?

Hi I was going to consider getting the Metaquotes VPS. This asks to download MT5 first.  However the signal I am copying is from the MT4 marketplace on the site. How do you set this up on the virtual server for MT4?  Hope I am making sense.

MQL5 VPS is for MT5 or MT4.
MT4 signal can not be used in MT5,and MT5 signal can not be used on MT4.

Thank you.  A couple of other clarifications, please.

1) The VPS MT4 will sync with my brokers terminal on my computer for price feed. Is that correct?

2) If I want to subscribe to another signal provider, do I login with another broker account and buy the second MT4 signal so it stay on separate account? 

3) I was looking to subscribe to 3-4 signals. How many signals are acceptable on the VPS account for it to be able to handle things comfortably  loss of performance?

1) Price feed is related to the broker (it is not related to your broker's terminal).
MQL5 VPS (or "VPS MT4" in your post) is Metatrader (it is your other Metatrader but in cloud).
And synchronization is the following: you are transferring your broker's MT4 enrovinment (opened chart, EAs attached and/or signal subscription) to that Metatrader in cloud.
There are some particularities (or difficulties) with it, for example: if your EA is using dll so this EA will not be synchronize; and so on (global variables, and more).

2) One signal subscription per trading account, and one VPS subscription per trading account too.
So, one signal subscription per one MQL5 VPS subscription.
But we can move the subscriptions from one trading account to an other one for example.

3) We are talking about MQL5 VPS so I already replied: one signal subscription per one MQL5 VPS.
