Cutting-edge high-speed Platform

The latest platform that evolved many functions and processing capabilities
as MT4's successor application. For Standard and Elite accounts.

MetaTrader 5 features

MetaTrader 5 is a high-functionality trading platform born in 2012 as the successor application to MetaTrader 4. Compared to MT4, which was a 32bit application, MT5 supports 64bit and enables distributed processing of large amounts of price data sent from MT servers, making possible very fast operations with extremely low time lag from daily trades to backtesting.

Additionally, the updated MT5 comes with MQL5 as standard, a programming language with improved processing power and excellent stability, and is designed to support development of programs used for high-speed trading such as HFT and scalping.

Also, newly added to the lineup is the provision of Linux OS and HarmonyOS dedicated apps, and android.apk package, supporting a wide range of users.

What is VPS?

A VPS refers to a private network that hosts all the necessary environments for running applications on an external data host machine, enabling remote operation. Using MetaTrader with VPS means running the user's terminal client on the VPS host machine, allowing the user to operate the client remotely.

Advantages of using a VPS

check
High security is ensured as the MetaTrader client terminal operates on the host machine, eliminating the need for a local PC.
check
Stability is enhanced, and PC-related errors, such as shutdowns and hardware failures, are less likely to occur.
check
Network-related errors or delays are extremely rare.

By switching the MetaTrader client environment to a VPS, you can gain the benefit of stable trading.

Benefit

Limited-time free MetaQuotes VPS

We offer a free one-month trial of MetaQuotes' VPS for traders who have traded 50 lots or more in the previous month.

MetaQuotes' VPS is specifically designed for MetaTrader, allowing remote control of the VPS virtual environment from the local client terminal. This enables users to adjust Expert Advisor settings and manage operations. Additionally, all data migration from the current environment and monitoring of the virtual terminal's status can be done from the local client terminal, providing a seamless trading environment between the virtual and desktop terminals.

If you are interested in VPS, please contact our support desk.
