If you are
serious about running an automated forex trading system 24/7
you would do well to buy a space on a Virtual Private Server to
ensure your trading is not interrupted by power outages or
interruption to your Internet access.
What is a
Virtual Private Server of VPS?
A VPS is
basically another computer running on a hosted server.
You interact with it in the same way you would with a normal
Windows - based desktop on your PC or laptop. The only
difference is, you don't need to keep your computer running at
home.
All you need
to do is open an account, log in on your VPS, and set up your
EA like you normally would do on your home
computer. Then, disconnect and go about your normal
day, safe in the knowledge that you can turn off your home
computer without missing a trade!
Advantages
You don't have to
leave your computer running 24/7
You don't have to
rely on your internet or power connection
You can run as many
platforms and EAs as you wish
You can access any
trading platform from any computer anywhere in the
world
