    3 IBFX live cash accounts, one on fxpro and it seldom trades. IBFX seems to do well for me on a vps.

    Is there any way to measure the latency from Metatrader hosted by a VPS?
There is no command line available to do some DOS/Ping commands.
SO I want to validate the latency between my VPS and the servers.

Also is it possible to track the other latencies in MT4?
(like delay to open a trade, doing actions etc...)

Because my MDP results are not goods. and I want to validate these network issues.

Thanks.

    Finfx demo on MDP and a vps would do great on a demo contest, but its not good on real money. We try and try to get the same results as demo on finfx and so far none of us can. I get almost 50 trades every time the charts spike and almost 100% wins but only on DEMO and the vps. Real is Not nearly the same as demo on finfx. I use only 1.5 % and default settings. Im usa cleint and broker so I use FIFO as true. I also dont change magic numbers or comments.

    Are you guys trying the FinFx real ECN account not the micro or mini? I've heard there's a huge difference between the two(or three=D).

The results on that account you shared are fantastic. Probably the best I've seen for MDP! Probably due to IBFX's almost obsessive emphasis on execution=D

I wonder what the performance would be like with Oanda and MB Trading? Two very much HONEST brokers...

I am running MDP in their ECN account live. I am currently preparing to relocate my VPS to the UK somewhere. They told me that the US server was slower than the main server and I checked it. From my VPS in california, i still get a faster execution speed from the main server than I do the US server. 800ms US vs about 700ms main.

    Huh, I wonder why they created that crappy US server then=D Isn't their main server located in Finland somewhere? I wonder what VPS they recommend? If their main server is located in a sort of 'exotic' location they must have a specific VPS that they recommend to their clients...

    ouch...
I'm not able to make MDP working on my VPS, so I contact the provider...
I just receive this email from the support team:
'
The MillionDollarPips EA contains code that proves to be malicious for the VPS environment and hence is not functional on our trading platform. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you.

anybody else suffer this????

Well....it turns out that their 'crappy' US server is a lot better than nearly every other broker I am seeing feedback about. The reason is for order flow handling and backup. The reason the US server is slower is not because it is a poor quality server. It is because their primary liquidity connection is in the UK.

Their server isn't really in an exotic location. At least not by my estimation. I would consider exotic something like FXOpen has....like Saudi Arabia. I just don't consider the UK to be exotic. Anyway, I asked about VPS servers. They sent a list of several and included ping times for each. The best server on their list was ticking in at an average of 2ms ping. They do not offer any 'cheap' vps packages. Only serious traders would get an account here....or wealthy....depends on how you want to view it.....~$120/month for the cheapest win-based VPS.

    Yeah of course it's not REALLY 'crappy', as FinFx is not a crappy broker. But if it doesn't benefit people in the US, I'm not so sure for whom it's meant...

And UK is like the most exotic location you'll find! Especially when it comes to Forex(duh)... Hehe=D

Hmmm.....you probably don't realize that the london session is the main session of the world. The london session has about 33% of the world volume traded. In comparison...the NY session has about 18% of the volume. If you are judging by markets, then the Sydney session is the most exotic of the 4 big markets. I am guessing that you are a US resident by your outlook. Regardless, just to keep the information accurate....technically the UK forex session is the center of the trading world.
