How to Start with Metatrader 5

Why Virtual Hosting On The MetaTrader 4 And MetaTrader 5 Is Better Than Usual VPS

Renting a virtual server right from the MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 terminals is the optimal way to ensure uninterrupted work of your trading robots and Signal subscriptions. Essentially, it is an analogue of a VPS though it is better and more suitable for addressing needs and challenges that a trader comes across. The server can be rented straight from your MetaTrader. It takes only a couple mouse clicks for Experts Advisors, indicators, scripts together with Signal subscriptions and settings to be transferred to the virtual server. The Virtual Hosting Cloud network was developed specially for MetaTrader and has all the advantages of a native solution.

Certainly, there are alternatives to virtual hosting but a closer look reveals that they do not compete. The first thing that comes to mind is using a home computer as a budget option. It could work, however a stable internet connection and uninterrupted power supply are not guaranteed. A VPS can be rented from a suitable provider found on the internet. That could be feasible but it implies a manual search for a server having minimum latency with the required Forex-broker's. Such a puzzle does not suit everyone.

Thank you for all the information, bue for example, can I rent it from Metrader 5 only having 100 USD in my account, or do I need like a minimum capital?

You are getting it wrong. Your trading accout balance cannot be used to purchase stuff outside from that broker. So if you are using broker A and company B to rent a VPS, you cannot use your balance from broker A to pay the VPS that you are renting from company B. They are 2 seperate companies, independent. Also Meta Quotes (this website) has nothing to do with your account balances with brokers, Meta Quotes (this website) only offers the software itself to trade, the liquidity is provided by brokers.

 

I hope this clears it up.
