I have been with Cheap VPS Pte in Netherlands for over 3 months and I have their most basic package at 5.15 GBP/month. I have been running 2 MT4s with 3 EAs which are not speed sensitive. During this time their server has never gone down or restarted. However, the speed is low but it can be much improved by using Windows 2008 instead of Windows 2012. Their response is very fast and my tickets always get replied to within an hour.

I think I am getting a good deal for such small monthly fee.
That does sound like a good deal. Could you post a link to their website?

Their link is: http://cheapvps.co/windows-vps/forex-vps/

You need to use Windows 2008 instead of Windows 2012 to speedup the VPS.

Hi no complaints with CNS except the price. 30 - 60 usd pm depending on memory etc . You can get rebate upto 30 if sponsored by a broker so find out before, they will not offer discount unless you know about it

Hi all - I need a VPS to run my Empty4 installation during the hours I'm not awake only. The only reason I need this is to keep my trailing stops "alive". I have a few questions perhaps someone can help me out.

Does running my broker's Empty4 server connection from a VPS prevent me connecting to the server from another computer ?

Do I have to connect and disconnect the VPS instance when I am using my other connection ?

Will a VPS with minimal RAM (1GB) suffice - I will be running HGI on the machine

Thanks for any help

Charles

No.

No.

It should, though I would recommend 2 GB RAM.

Dear Charles,
You can connect several Empty4 instance with same account on different devises in same time. For example you can configure Empty4 on your mobile so once EA on VPS triggers orders it notify on your phone. But be careful if you use trade manager and EA which can enter into conflict with TP/SL rules.

A VPS with 1GB is suffisant if you don't use several Empty4 instances with all 24 pairs opened. To be confortable better take with 2 GB and 2 core as processor.
