8 reasons to choose MetaTrader VPS over non-specialized hosting solutions - page 4

 

Hello Everyone, 

I am a bit new so go slow with me please. 

Ok here is what I am trying to do, PLEASE help me. I need some help. I have bought VPS before when I trade futures market. So I have experience with buying VPS. Now I am in forex market. 

My setup for EA trading and what I need:

1. I will eventually have 15 EAs that will run live. 

2. I will need to back test each EA before running live. So I need good CPU and Memory VPS.

3. I will need to SIM trade each EA before running live for about 3 weeks.

4. Each EA will run on either MT5 or MT4. 

5. The 15s EA will be run on different brokers (3). 5 EA per broker. 


Questions :

1. Can I use MetaTrader VPS services to accomplish my goal and needs above by uses MetaTrader VPS services to back test, demo trade, and live trade 15 EAs?

2. Will I need 15 VPS to run each EA on the VPS?

3. Can I back test and live trade multiple MT4/MT5 on each VPS? Or is it preferred to have 1 EA for 1MT5 for 1 VPS?

I really appreciate the help. Please PM if would like to be paid to provide me the answer and consult with me how to set up successfully so I reach my goals of running 15 EAs successfully on VPS the right way?

Thank you so much 

Darrell.

Answers:

1. You can use MQL5 VPS to run your EAs in your trading accounts, but not to backtest them.

2. You will need 1 MQL5 VPS subscription per trading account, so for your 15 EAs in 3 trading accounts, you will need 3 MQL5 VPS subscriptions.

2. You cannot backtest, but you can trade live on MQL5 VPS.

You can look at MQL5 VPS journals about it (for possible error), and for Metatrader journals.
Because you only know all the technical details related to your subscription so you only can check everything and find the reasons.
