Forex VPS Pro is MassiveGRID's forex dedicated server: a Windows trading server from $9.73 per month whose CPU cores are reserved for you alone, with a Windows Server licence included, a 10 Gbps network port and NVMe storage, in New York, London, Frankfurt or Singapore. It is built for scalping and news Expert Advisors, multi-terminal desks and anyone who cannot let a neighbour's backtest touch their fills. Every plan runs on a Proxmox HA cluster with a 100% uptime SLA and a 15-day money-back guarantee. The Pro tier is preselected on every plan on this page.
On a shared plan your vCPUs are scheduled alongside other customers' servers; on Forex VPS Pro each vCPU maps to a core reserved for you. For most strategies the shared plan is fine. For the ones below it is not.
A reserved core cannot be slowed by another customer's optimisation run or indicator storm. Your EA's OnTick fires on time at 13:30 GMT whatever anyone else on the host is doing.
Scalping and news EAs lose money on jitter, not only on average latency. Dedicated cores keep the time between tick and order steady, which is what a strategy measured in milliseconds needs.
Forex VPS Pro plans include the Windows Server licence in the price. Nothing to bring, nothing to activate; the server arrives licensed and ready for MT4, MT5, cTrader or Trader Workstation.
A 10 Gbps network port and NVMe storage replicated three times, so tick writes, log flushes and platform loads never queue behind the network or the disk.
Like every MassiveGRID Forex VPS, the Pro tier runs on a Proxmox HA cluster. If a node fails, the VM restarts on a healthy one within seconds. No single point of failure.
Start with one reserved core and move the sliders to 24 vCPUs, 64 GB of RAM and 10 TB of storage as the desk grows, in New York, London and Frankfurt; Singapore scales to 20 vCPUs and 192 GB.
Both tiers are the same Windows server on the same HA cluster in the same four cities, with the same latency to your broker. The difference is whether the CPU is shared or reserved, and what comes with the reservation.
| Forex VPS (shared) | Forex VPS Pro (dedicated) | |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | vCPUs scheduled on shared cores | Each vCPU mapped to a core reserved for you |
| Windows Server licence | Not included in the shared price | Included |
| Network port | Standard | 10 Gbps |
| Storage | NVMe, replicated 3x | NVMe, replicated 3x |
| Latency to broker | Same | Same |
| HA failover and SLA | Proxmox HA, 100% SLA | Proxmox HA, 100% SLA |
| Starting price | From $2.87/mo | From $9.73/mo |
| Best for | Swing and trend EAs, a few terminals, copy trading | Scalping and news EAs, many terminals, backtests beside live accounts, prop desks |
A plain rule: if a delay of a few milliseconds on one tick would change your result, or if you run more than a handful of terminals, or if you backtest on the same server that trades, take the Pro tier. If your EAs hold trades for hours and days, the shared tier gives the same fills for a third of the price. The dedicated versus shared guide walks through the cases with examples.
No, and the distinction matters. Forex VPS Pro is a virtual server with CPU cores reserved for it, which gives you the isolation that matters for trading, dedicated compute, without the cost and the single point of failure of one physical machine. Because it is a VM on an HA cluster, it restarts on another node when hardware fails, which a bare-metal server cannot do. If you need a whole physical machine for a different reason, our dedicated cloud servers are the product to look at.
Four starting points, every one adjustable with the sliders below before you order. Prices shown are the starting price for each size in New York, London and Frankfurt; Singapore is priced slightly higher and the configurator shows the exact figure.
| Plan | Reserved resources | From | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Forex VPS Pro 1 | 1 dedicated vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 32 GB NVMe | $9.73/mo | One scalping or news EA that must not be disturbed |
| Forex VPS Pro 2 | 4 dedicated vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB NVMe | $41.21/mo | Five to ten terminals, copiers, light backtesting beside live accounts |
| Forex VPS Pro 3 | 8 dedicated vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB NVMe | $82.42/mo | Signal providers and fund managers with ten or more terminals |
| Forex VPS Pro 4 | 16 dedicated vCPU, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB NVMe | $164.83/mo | Multi-strategy desks, MT5 optimisation on 16 agents alongside live trading |
