Feedback on local pc/laptop mt4 terminal is that vps is running and mt4 terminal is running after sync - happy :) question: how can i see or determine or where must i look that the ea is enabled for trading/running (smiley face icon on chart) on the chart on mt4 terminal on the vps

hello is mql5 vps good to have?

it is not for manual trading. only eas. and does not allow use of dlls.

otherwise i used it for few months, and it was great. more convenient than a regular vps. simply migrate all charts and ea settings via a vps chart in mt5, and then, save it as a new profile so that you dont lose your local setup. then open new profile without any charts and can monitor the account.

other limitation is that can only use 1 broker and 1 account per vps.
