VPS Reviews

Forex_ea_vps are one of the most affordable VPS providers in the market. They are based in Bulgaria, and surprisingly have excellent customer service via email having always replied to my inquiries within 2 hrs. They also offer free EA's with some of their more expensive plans, however I haven't tested them.

Their service works well if you're running your forex EA off a 15 minute chart or higher. Due to the latency (time to process orders) between their server and most brokers, scalping EA's such as Million Dollar Pips won’t work.

As an affiliate partner I have negotiated a discount for all livetradingroom.info members. If you enter the promotion code "LFT" you'll receive a 20% discount on all plans for life.

Galaxy Visions are currently one of my active VPS providers, I’ve been with them since September 2011 and am currently on the basic plan.

The VPS server is based in New York and close to most of the major brokers. I recently did a latency test (order execution time) from Pepperstone to Galaxy Visions and the time was only 7ms. The support is good with fast responses via email and live chat. They are also more affordable than most of the major VPS providers.

Their customer service isn’t great. In the past they would occasionally reset my VPS without telling me during market ours to conduct an update without notification, this resulted in some fairly heft losses for me and they didn’t even offer an apology. After I complained a number of times they made an alteration to my VPS and  I haven’t had a reset since.

I like their VPS because the connection to my desktop computer is fast. The speed is very similar to my standard desktop, so I find it good for some of the semi-automated strategies that I use that require some discretionary analysis. Other VPS’ that I’ve used experience about a 2 second delay between the mouse click and a response on the screen.

I have negotiated a special discount for all liveforextrading.info members. Enter the galaxy visions coupon code “liveforextrading.info” and receive $15 off any plan for life.

I run a number of my EA’s on Beeks FX VPS and I’m currently on the Silver Plan with around 8 copis  MT4 platforms operating. Their servers are based in London and while they have only been established for a short period of time, I’ve found their standard of service to be really good.

I’ve been using them since November 2011 and the service only dropped out once. In response offered they offered all their users me a free months VPS as an apology.  The latency to Synergy FX server is unbelievable at 1ms. Synergy FX also offer to pay their monthly fee if you deposit over $5k with them (but you need to ask your account manager at Synergy, they won’t volunteer it).

I definitely recommend BeeksFX if you’re looking to run a fast executing scalping EA like Million Dollar Pips.
