Forex VPS
An expert advisor only trades while the MetaTrader terminal is open and connected to your broker. On your PC, a power cut, an update restart or a home internet outage is enough to stop it, often without you noticing until you check the history.
On a VPS the terminal does not depend on your computer. You leave it open on the server, connect over Remote Desktop from a PC, Mac or phone when you want to check charts or change a setting, and close the window. MetaTrader keeps working.
MetaQuotes does not publish minimum hardware: usage depends on how many advisors, instruments and charts you keep open. That is why we suggest the 8 GB plan with 2 vCPU; the 4 GB plan has 1 vCPU and falls short once advisors are running. If you open one terminal per broker, each adds its own load and a bigger plan makes sense.
The VPS is unmanaged. You install MetaTrader, log in to your account and decide which advisors run. Infrastructure and network are on us; if RDP does not answer, you have the noVNC console in the client area and Spanish-speaking support.
