Signals : Ask & Say Anything & Everything About MQL5 Trading Signals - page 85

 

Just more example - 

It was many years ago when I was the admin of tsd forex forum (as a newdigital by username).
For now - tsd forex forum content was merged with this mql5 forum ... but it was separated forum long time ago.
And there was a signal service there namely RentaSignal.

And if the signal provider was making a signal so few guys (technical team) were doing the following:
they made a copy of his Metatrader in cloud.

  • Signal provider was thinking that everything is made in automatic way, and he needs just to create a signal.
  • But few guys were making a copy of a single Metatrader instances to the cloud in manual way working hard in 24/7 with no any holidays and weekends.

So, the company (the owner of tsd forum and RentaSignal service) paid to the hosting providers for cloud and for possibility to run the programs in the cloud + monthly salary for few guys working hard.

--------------

In this MQL5 Signals - the users are having a choice:

  • they (users) can pay for VPS and they can create the copy of their Metatrader instances by themselves, and they can control this process using log files ("few guys" do not exist in this case);
  • or users can use their hope PC with hjome internet without any VPS (if their EAs are traded few time in a week with good home internet and with keeping Metatrader live in 24/5 for example so they do not need VPS.

So, it is the question about who is paying ..

 
James_Austin:

Well it is always the user pays.

So why hasnt MQL adopted the increased spread fee model? Surely it would attract even more customers!

MQL = MQ = MetaQuotes company?
We are using MQ instead of MQL. Because MQL5/MQL4 is programming language, not a company.

spread fee model?
No idea sorry (I am not from MQ) ..

Your computer is on Windows?
Because the Signal service may not work for Linux and for MacOS.

You can't subscribe to a signal with an account that you already used to publish a signal here in MQL5.com.

You can not order a signal with an account you have already used to publish the signal here at MQL5.com.

Yes, use a new account.

 

So it's been over a week now since my subscription to a signal has been moved.

Despite that, I still cannot change the account details!

Service Desk redirected me to this forum and I cannot use the prepaid signal for over a week now because a mistake in those details had appeared...

Can someone help, please???
