VPS Coices? Azure vs ChartVPS vs ..?..

[backtester831]

johnkrick, you might be overpaying. I've tried www.chartvps.com and www.speedtradingservers.com and were both very underwhelming when it came to day to day trading over remote desktop because of the slowness. For example opening up a chrome browser would sometimes max out the cpu, and trying to chart trade felt very laggy. On the other hand I found www.ninjamobiletrader.com recommended through their ecosystem listings, and now i pay only 59. Honestly the 59 plan is much better than the more expensive plans from the other sites. Because for me when it comes to chart trading, it needs to feel smooth without slowness or it is a non starter. I think alot of the vps providers use old intel xeons which are terrible for remote desktop trading. They might be fine for running an automated strategy, but if you need to RDP to chart trade they feel extremely slow. If you're not running any automated strategies and just want to chart trade over the vps, I'd def recommend the $59 plan, it's the least expensive I have found that doesn't have chart lag for day trading.

Only reason I'm even using vps for daytrading is because I like to use special order types to hide my stop losses and profit targets from the market. But the problem with simulated stops and market if touch profit targets is that they only live locally on your computer, unlike a regular limit order which is already submitted to the broker. So when my home internet went out for a split second and I needed to reconnect, that was exactly the time of volatility, my orders didn't get submitted, and i lost thousands. I said to myself never again, and now only daytrade over a vps.

By the way I'm not associated with any company, just a happy customer.

100% agreed. They are the only ones that can run multiple NQ order flow charts without lagging

Hey backtester831! Running multiple NQ order flow charts without lag is easy on our AMD EPYC powered servers. I notice that you are new to the forum, so I would like to introduce you to an approved NinjaTrader vendor and EliteTrader sponsor: QuantVPS.com!

We just got this feedback, attached below. He is running the VPS Pro ($80/monthly) but only $60/month if you use the promo code "ELITE" which is reserved for EliteTrader forum members.

For comparison, the $59 plan at Ninja Mobile Trader only offers 2 vCPU's and 3.5GB of RAM.

We offer 6 vCPU's and 16GB RAM.
---> Same price, triple the power, quadruple the RAM, and 4x more storage, only from QuantVPS.com.

Ping us via Live Chat if you have any questions, we are available 24/7!

No thanks, I've tried cheap VPS in the forex world and it's never worth it. Trading infrastructure is not a place where I want to be cheap when live funds are at risk.

You're not the only one that uses AMD EPYC. Contabo uses it too and they also very cheap because they load up like 50 people all sharing the same machine. I've had AMD EPYC with contabo in the past and it cost me 20 blown evals. So far very happy with ninjamobiletrader vps
