Duplication of orders occurs when two terminals connected to the same account are launched. For a detailed review of your problem, please submit a request to servicedesk, attach the terminal log file.

Thank you, the first problem is solved, indeed, the same RoboForex account is launched on 2 different VPS. I'll keep it in mind for the future, although other signals are duplicated on terminals running on an additional VPS, but there is no doubling on them. Nevertheless, I have learnt for myself that such mode is not "standard".

On the problem of unauthorised closing of orders, I will soon prepare a request to the desk service.

On the problem of unauthorised closing of orders I will soon prepare an application to the desk service.

Again - a consequence of double connection of the terminal to one account with a subscription. The extra order was closed automatically.

Thank you, I have already sorted it out via servicedesk, indeed, each terminal closed the "alien" order opened by another terminal. So, the service of signals copying works quite correctly. And you have to pay for mistakes, in this case about 2500 quid. However, now I'm going to make some manual adjustments, it will be smaller))))))
 

I have found a solution to the problem I mentioned.

If you need to run on different VPS 2 terminals servicing the same account connected to the "Signals" service, you need to do the following. On one of the terminals (it doesn't matter which one) set all the required copying parameters: agreement with the terms of use of "Signals" service, permission for real-time subscription, depot loading, spread, etc., on the other terminal uncheck the first two subscription items. In this case, the first terminal will take a signal from the source, and the second terminal will only display orders opened by the first terminal according to the signal.

Whether you need this function or not is up to you to decide.

I have just received a confirmation in practice - an order was opened on the signal without any duplication.

Just add funds from your Paypal to your MQL5 accout. Go to payments, once funds are added to your MQL5 account, when you subscribe the amount will be automatically be picked from this account. 
Do we need to on PC all the time to receive signals?

Yes this is required to get signals. Other way to order VPS .
 
I do not have the signals tab at the bottom of my graph, although I'd like to subscribe to a signal

Try to download terminal from this site. Your broker doesn't support signal service.
 
Signal provider: real account, balance 10 000 USD, leverage 1:100.

Signal subscriber: real account, balance 2 000 USD, leverage 1:400, deposit load 95%.

Subscriber's lot size should be: 2000 x 0.95 / 10000 = 0.19, i.e. 19% of the provider's lot size (leverage is not taken into account, as the subscriber's leverage is higher).

In the journal there is an entry: ".... Signal 'account no.': signal provider has balance 10 000.00 USD, leverage 1:100; subscriber has balance 2 000.00 USD, leverage 1:400
.... Signal 'account no.': percentage for volume conversion selected according to the ratio of balances and leverages, new value 15% (old value 0%)"

Question: why 15% and not 19% as it should be according to the above calculation?

14. How is the percentage ratio of the Supplier's and Subscriber's transaction volumes rounded?
How is the percentage ratio of the Supplier's and Subscriber's transaction volumes rounded?
The algorithm of percentage rounding is stepwise:

  1. If the value is less than 1%, it is rounded upwards to 1%, i.e. it is considered equal to 1%. Example: 0.25% => 1%
  2. If the value is more than 1% and not more than 10%, it is rounded down to a whole value. Example: 6.25% => 6%
  3. If the value is more than 10% and not more than 100%, it is rounded down in 5% increments. Example: 29.7% => 25%
  4. If the value is more than 100% and not more than 1000%, it is rounded down in 10% increments. Example: 129.6% => 120%

You can see an example of calculation in the article Principle of Operation and Advantages of MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 Trading Signals.
