A VPS stands for Virtual Private Server. As the name implies, it is your own private server which is hosted in the cloud/on the Internet. Like any server it is always online 24/7. Think of your VPS as a personal computer that you rent monthly. You then access your computer through the internet and install your MT4 terminals, so they run 24hrs per day.
Any Trading EA requires the trading terminal to be running 24/7. If the trading platform is offline or shutdown the EA ceases to function.
With our VPS you can install any trading platform with your EA and it let it run 24/7. You can access your VPS using the Remote Desktop Connection at any time and you will see that your platforms are still running as you left it.
