VPS vs Metatrader servers
Hi guys, I was looking for VPS servers and was wondering what is the difference between Metatrader offered servers vs other VPS?
Metatrader prices are cheaper and you avoid many problems connected with running VPS
I have tested VPS and had constant problems with restarting and freezing. Also VPS has to be setup properly. Updates switched off, startup configured etc. So many issues and still many trades were missed due to server shutdown.
As for Metatrader servers, prepare the desk, install EAs and just upload them to server and that's it.
But why they are not as popular as VPS?
Depending on the EA you wish to use it may not function properly if not in the VPS environment. If your EA requires the "Allow DLL" function to be toggled on in its options then I have found they would not work in my broker provided servers as they would not allow you select that function. The brokers offer a cheaper service but it is just that. If your EA will require the allow DLL function then you will require a true VPS environment. Cost more for the VPS monthly but you get what you pay for.

I started with mql5 VPS service when I started trading with EA, but allways it made problems for me. Every change of one EA parameter need to be migrated to virtual machine. Big disadvantage of mql5 is limitation of migrated charts to virtual server. Currently you can migrate only 32 charts. Also you cant cuse EAs that are based on DLL import. Since I made decision to rent commercial WindowsVPS my live made easier. I can connect via Remote Desktop with mobile device and change everything what I need. So I don't even need PC to control my trading enviroment. On Widnows you are able to block IP connection so if your broker is using several IPs that have worse ping/latency connection to your server you can block it. Some of brokers can cover your payments for VPS if you reach some monthly amount of total traded lots. I see more adventages of using standard WindowsVPS than mqlt5 Virtual Hosting Service.
