Installation

To run the bot you need a VPS. You can get a VPS for as cheap as €6.65 a month. We are using DeInServerHost. Below you find a guide about how you can purchase and install a VPS.

What is a 'VPS'?

You need a VPS (Virtual Private Server) to run the bot because it operates 24/7. Even if your computer is always on, issues like internet disruptions or power outages can interfere with your trades. A VPS ensures the bot runs continuously without interruptions. A VPS is basically a computer you rent which is on 24/7.

You can use any VPS provider since MT4 and the bot require very little computing power. However, it’s important to choose a reliable provider, such as DeInServerHost or Amazon. DeInServerHost is what we use. Make sure to get a Windows VPS, as that’s required to run MT4 and the bot. You can access and manage the VPS from any device.
