That round trip is the speed of light in fibre over the straight-line distance — the number no route can beat. Real fibre bends, and every hop adds to it, so treat it as a floor rather than a measurement. Measured figures to real broker servers are below.

The market here

Why traders put a server in Los Angeles

Los Angeles is where the trans-Pacific cable lands. For a trader on the US west coast it is the obvious node; for anyone trading the Asian session from North America it is better than New York, because the orders are going west and this is three thousand miles of that journey already done. The west coast morning also catches the end of the European session, which makes the working day here an unusual shape.

Questions

The things traders ask before they move

If yours is not here, the support desk answers around the clock — and it is engineers answering, not a script.

The service

5
What is a Forex VPS?

A server that runs your trading terminal around the clock, in a data centre, independently of your own computer. Your expert advisors keep working through reboots, power cuts and a closed laptop lid.

Who should use one?

Anyone whose orders depend on a machine staying online: traders running EAs, anyone forward-testing a strategy for weeks, anyone far enough from their broker that distance costs them fills, and anyone who is often away from their desk.

Will it reduce slippage?

It usually improves fills, because your terminal sits beside the broker rather than at the end of a home connection. We cannot promise slippage disappears — some of what causes it is outside anyone's control.

Which brokers does it work with?

All of them. The service is broker independent and built to give the best possible connection to every one of them.

Is it only for forex trading?

No. It is a Windows server, so you can install whatever you need — strategy development software, MetaTrader back ends, platforms that have nothing to do with forex. We preinstall the trading tools, you add the rest.

Setup and access

5
How long does setup take?

Orders go through a manual check first, for fraud and abuse — then the node builds from a prepared image. The policy allows thirty minutes to three hours; in practice it is usually the shorter end of that. Credentials arrive by email as soon as it is up.

Is there anything to configure?

No. The VPS arrives ready to use with Windows Server, MetaTrader 4 and 5, auto-start tools, a browser and a dedicated IP. Log in, sign in to your account, and you are trading.

Can I install my own software?

Yes, exactly as you would on any Windows PC — download it in the browser and run the installer. If something is awkward, open a ticket and an engineer will do it for you.

How do I connect?

Remote Desktop, from Windows, a Mac, a tablet or a phone. You can close the connection and everything on the server keeps running.

How close will I be to my broker?

That depends on the node you choose. The High Frequency plans are cross-connected for 0 to 5 ms to the major broker servers, and the latency table lists the real figure from every location so you can check before you buy.

Billing and moving in

5
Can you move me from my current host?

Yes, free of charge. Our engineers move your terminals, EAs, indicators and settings across, and you log back in to the same setup.

Can I change location later?

Yes, at no charge. Pick a different node whenever your broker changes or a closer one opens.

What if it does not work out?

Tell us. If we cannot solve the problem, you can ask for your money back — the refund policy page sets out what qualifies and by when.

How do I pay?

Card, PayPal and the usual processors, plus crypto — BTC, USDT, ETH, LTC and DOGE — which carries a 5% bonus credited on new orders.

Is there an affiliate programme?

Yes, and it is free to join. Commission starts at 15% of every referred sale, including renewals and upgrades, and rises to 30% on performance. Withdraw it or take it as account credit.
