Cloud VPS

Have you ever heard of Cloud VPS? It's a new technology related to VPS. A couple of years ago, so-called Hyper-V servers has emerged. Hyper-V had been the most superior VPS out there as it allows completely isolated server resources for its users. So even if other users who consumed high volume resources, your resources are not affected.

Now Cloud VPS quickly route its data to other servers in the event of power outage or any trouble. It sounds too good to be true, but some VPS providers deploying this technology even give their clients 100% up-time guarantee.

Cloud VPS is relatively expensive, but I found a cheap one.

Their server is fast and stable, and you can easily configure its resources. The cost is impressive. You pay about  £40 only for Quad-core CPU and 4GB RAM. If you want Dual-core CPU and 1GB RAM, then you pay only about £18.　For such a nice price, you can get Cloud VPS!

But do not expect to get excellent support. I've submitted support tickets couple of times, but all replies took several hours. Their support stuff are available only during UK business hours. So their statement, "24 hours manned support," is a lie. But for me, if the server doesn't go down, there's almost no need to contact support except some tiny issues like control panel operation or things like that.

Current Results

Misteriously, StepsOfGlory4 is still alive. It occasionally gets about $100 floating drawdown on my IBFX nano account. So if you have about $500 I think this EA would be fine. If you trade with micro, not nano, you would probably need $5,000 to run it safely.

My other bots, Wallstreet and Oddbot, are still underwater.

My new VPS provider, CNS, is running fine after a week. Hope they keep good work.

Database Mart went down twice

My most favorite VPS provider Database Mart (or HyperV Mart) went down twice recently. I had been using them quite a while and trusted them very much, but I now decieded to move to other VPS provider.

Can't stay with them any more. I don't want to risk my accounts.

Hyper-V Mart Deal

I've been using Hyper-V VPS from Hyper-V Mart or Database Mart (same company) for quite a while. As I wrote before, this VPS provider has been the best.

I have spoken to George from Hyper-V Mart and got a very good deal. If you order their Basic Hyper-V plan, you can get additional CPU so that your VPS is dual core.

I had already been running 9 MT4 platforms on their Basic Hyper-V plan, but with dual core CPC, you can run 11 MT4 platforms on the desktop at a time! If you run multiple forward tests or have multiple live accounts trading different EAs, then their VPS server would be a perfect choice. As far as I know, you won't be able to find such a competent VPS anywhere else. Normal VPS, like the one from VPS land, allows you to run only 2 to 4 MT4 platforms max.

So if you happen to read this post and want to get the very best VPS, just send me a message using a form mail on this blog. Then I'll talk to George about the deal you can get.

I get no referrel fee or something. I just want you to be happy like me.

Cheers,

VPS for MT4

I've used VPS brokers including Easy CGI, VPS Land, etc. Of all the VPS providers, my best choice is Database Mart (Hyper-V Mart is the same company).

I've never experienced any down time with Database Mart. And resources such as CPU and RAM are guaranteed.

For those of you who don't know what the Hyper-V server is, I give you some info. There are Virtuozzo VPS and Hyper-V VPS. Although Hyper-V is a bit costly, it guarrantees its resources and usage are completely separated from others, while Virtuozzo server is always affected by other shared users.

So, Database Mart (Hyper-V Mart) is not the only Hyper-V providers, but I like them. Because of all the Hyper-V providers I used, Database Mart is the most stable one, and they are the only provider that has no down time so far. Not only that, if you search on the Internet, you'll notice it would be very hard to find a Hyper-V VPS plan with such good CPU and RAM for the same cost.

Even with the cheapest plan, Express Hyper-V Server ($29.99), you can run 5 to 6 MT4 platforms, and they are still stable. For the same 512MB RAM, VPS Land offers their Virtuozzo VPS for only $19.99. But you can run only one or maybe two MT4s maximum, and it's not as stable as Database Mart.

Also, with Virtuozzo VPS, some of the execution files doesn't work. With Hyper-V, you can install anything. So there is a big difference.

I'm not an affiliate of Database Mart, but honestly, if you want to run your MT4 on the most stable server, I would like to recommend Database Mart (or Hyper-V Mart).
