What is a VPS? 

A Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a remote computer that can keep your MT4 or MT5 trading platform running 24 hours a day, independently of your personal device.  

Why would I use a VPS? 

  • Your trades and Expert Advisors (EAs) keep running 24/7 subject to server availability and connectivity. 

  • It may help reduce interruptions caused by local internet or power outages. 

  • A VPS may help reduce connection latency, depending on server location, network conditions, and other technical factors. 

  • A VPS is especially useful if you use automated strategies and rely on trading bots or EAs. 

Does Axi offer a VPS? 

You can subscribe to a paid MT4/MT5 VPS service from third-party providers, subject to their respective terms, conditions and fees. Axi does not operate or manage these services. 

How do I get a paid VPS? 

  1. Visit the Axi VPS page.  

  2. The page lists the available third-party VPS providers. Pick the one that suits your needs and budget. 

  3. Visit the provider’s website to compare available plans, pricing, specifications, and offer terms. 
    Note: Pricing and offers are subject to change. Refer to the provider’s website for the latest details. 

  4. Sign up on the provider’s website and follow the registration steps. 

  5. Once your VPS is active, connect to it, install MT4 or MT5, and log in to your trading account. Your platform can then keep running on the VPS even when your own computer is turned off. Your VPS provider can help with setup if needed. 

Do I need a VPS to trade with Axi? 

No. A VPS is optional and may be beneficial for clients using Expert Advisors (EAs) or seeking to maintain continuous platform connectivity. 

Who do I contact if my VPS isn’t working? 

If you experience any issues with your VPS service, we recommend contacting your VPS provider support team directly, as they are best placed to assist you with technical queries and troubleshooting.
