Why Frankfurt
Why Frankfurt is the right city for continental European accounts
Frankfurt is Europe's largest internet exchange and the home of the ECB and Eurex. Fewer retail forex brokers publish a Frankfurt location than a London one, which is why this page is honest about who belongs here.
Brokers that name Frankfurt
FXTM lists Frankfurt among its server locations. Brokers hosted in Amsterdam, such as Exness and FXTM's Dutch servers, are a short hop away and worth measuring against London. The table below sets out each case.
Under 1 ms inside Frankfurt
From a MassiveGRID Frankfurt server, brokers with infrastructure in Frankfurt are under 1 ms away. For a broker in Amsterdam, Frankfurt and London are comparable; the ping in your terminal decides.
The shortest RDP hop from the EU
From Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, the Netherlands and northern Italy, Frankfurt is the nearest of the four cities. Your Remote Desktop session feels local when you log in to manage charts.
Frankfurt session, EU data
The Frankfurt open at 07:00 GMT precedes London by an hour and carries the first European liquidity of the day. ECB decisions and German data releases move EUR pairs from inside this city.
HA failover and 3x replicated storage
Every Frankfurt Forex VPS runs on a Proxmox HA cluster. If a node fails, the VM restarts on a healthy one within seconds from NVMe storage replicated three times. No single point of failure.
Full Windows, any platform
Administrator access over RDP. Install the exact MT4, MT5 or cTrader build your broker distributes, your indicators, copiers and VPN client. Nothing is locked down.
Which brokers belong in Frankfurt
We list a broker under a city only when the broker itself publishes that location, and few retail forex brokers publish Frankfurt. Here is what the published information supports, including the brokers hosted elsewhere on the continent for which Frankfurt may be the best of our four cities.
| Broker | Platforms | Published server location |
|---|---|---|
| FXTM | MT4, MT5 | Amsterdam, Frankfurt and Hong Kong, per its FAQ |
| Exness | MT4, MT5 | Amsterdam, Dubai, Seoul, Singapore, Miami and Johannesburg; Amsterdam serves most European accounts |
| InstaForex | MT4, MT5 | Two European server groups (city not named), plus the US and Singapore |
| Brokers in LD4 or LD5 | all | See the London page; London is the better order for them |
For an FXTM account on its Frankfurt server, Frankfurt is the obvious choice. For Exness and other Amsterdam-hosted brokers, Frankfurt and London are both one short European hop away; log into your terminal from each, compare the ping shown next to the server name, and keep the lower one. The 15-day money-back guarantee covers that experiment. For a broker whose servers are in London, order the London server, however close Frankfurt is to your desk.
Locations are taken from each broker's own website, help centre or press releases, checked in October 2026 and listed with their sources in our broker reference. Brokers move servers and some host different platforms or entities in different cities, so confirm the server name and ping in your platform's login dialog before you order. If your broker is not here, ask our support team in chat.
Who should pick Frankfurt
Traders with a broker hosted in Frankfurt or elsewhere in continental Europe. The server's job is to sit next to the trade server. If that server is in Frankfurt the answer is under 1 ms; if it is in Amsterdam, Frankfurt is one of the two cities to measure.
EU traders who keep their trading data on the continent. A trading VPS holds your platform, your EAs, your logs and your account history. If your fund's or firm's policy keeps that data inside the EU, Frankfurt is the one city of the four that satisfies it, and it does so without changing anything about how your broker executes.
Traders in central Europe whose broker is in neither London nor New York. Where the broker publishes no location and the ping from your own machine does not point clearly at one city, Frankfurt gives the shortest Remote Desktop hop from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland and the Netherlands, so the session you use to manage positions stays crisp. The Frankfurt VPS guide goes through the measurement.
What a Frankfurt Forex VPS includes
- Windows Server with full administrator access over Remote Desktop, from any PC, Mac, tablet or phone
- NVMe storage replicated three times, 10 Gbps connectivity and 12 Tbps DDoS protection
- A 100% uptime SLA backed by Proxmox HA failover, not a 99.9% best effort
- CPU, RAM and storage sliders you can move up at any time without reinstalling
- Free MT4 and MT5 setup help from a 24/7 team rated 9.5/10 by customers
- A 15-day money-back guarantee on every plan
Need dedicated cores? Switch the configurator below to Forex VPS Pro, which adds dedicated CPU, a 10 Gbps port and a Windows Server licence; the dedicated versus shared guide explains when it is worth it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frankfurt Forex VPS questions
Of the brokers whose published information we have checked, FXTM names Frankfurt, alongside Amsterdam and Hong Kong. Exness names Amsterdam for Europe, which is a short hop from Frankfurt or London. Most other large retail brokers publish London or New York, and for them the matching city is the right order. The table on this page sets out each case, and our support team can advise on a broker that is not listed.
Both are one short hop away and the difference is small, so measure rather than guess. Order the server, log into your terminal, read the ping shown next to the server name in the MetaTrader login dialog or the cTrader status bar, and if a London server tests lower, switch within the 15-day money-back period. Traders who also want their data on the continent usually settle on Frankfurt.
Yes. The server, its storage and its backups are in Frankfurt, so your platform, Expert Advisors, logs and account history stay inside the EU. That does not change how your broker executes, which depends on where the broker's own servers are, but it satisfies policies that require trading infrastructure to be hosted in the EU.
No, pick London. Your own location only affects the Remote Desktop session you use to manage the server, and RDP from Germany to London is perfectly usable. Order execution depends on the distance between the server and the broker, and for a broker in LD4 or LD5 that is the London Forex VPS.
Forex VPS 1 in Frankfurt starts at $2.87 per month with 1 vCPU, 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of NVMe storage, enough for one or two MT4 or MT5 terminals. The configurator on this page shows the price for any CPU, RAM, storage and billing term before you order. Forex VPS Pro in Frankfurt, with dedicated CPU cores and a Windows Server licence included, starts at $9.73 per month. Every plan carries a 100% uptime SLA, DDoS protection and a 15-day money-back guarantee; the plan range for all four cities is on the Forex VPS page.
Brokers with infrastructure in Frankfurt are under 1 ms from the MassiveGRID Frankfurt server. Amsterdam-hosted brokers are a short European hop away and comparable from London, so measure both. London and New York brokers are better served from their own cities. Read the ping next to the server name in your terminal once the server is up; the 15-day guarantee covers you if the number is not what you need.
Yes. If your broker moves, or you open an account with a broker hosted elsewhere, order a server in the new city and copy your terminal folders across; our support team helps with the move. Each city is a separate product in the client portal, so the new server runs alongside the old one until you are ready to cancel it.
Yes, as long as you disconnect rather than sign out. Closing the Remote Desktop window leaves your Windows session, the terminal and every EA running on the server. Choosing Sign out from the Start menu ends the session and closes the terminal, so avoid it. The HA cluster restarts the server on another node if hardware fails; add the terminal to Windows startup so it returns automatically after any reboot.
