The basics
A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a remote computer that runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It keeps your MetaTrader 5 platform and Expert Advisors online even when your personal computer is off — with faster, more stable connectivity to your broker's servers.
Your EAs run continuously — no interruptions from power outages, internet drops, Windows updates, or accidental shutdowns.
VPS data centres are located near major financial hubs. Shorter physical distance to liquidity servers means faster order execution.
Enterprise-grade hardware, redundant power, and dedicated network connections. The same infrastructure that institutional traders rely on.
Is VPS for you?
A VPS is essential for any trader who relies on automated execution or can't afford downtime.
If you run Expert Advisors, a VPS ensures they execute 24/5 without interruption. Missing a single trade due to a disconnect can cost more than a year of VPS hosting.
Strategy providers on social trading platforms need consistent uptime. Followers expect trades to be copied in real time — downtime means missed signals.
Milliseconds matter. A VPS positioned near liquidity hubs reduces round-trip latency and improves fill quality during fast-moving markets.
Unreliable local internet shouldn't dictate your trading results. A VPS gives you institutional-grade connectivity regardless of where you live.
