Hi 

 

Have a look at this;  https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/498

Interesting mt4 (also mt5) ea that sets up auto execute entries based on your own trend, channel, or support and resistance lines. Could be useful for the higher time frame trader not able to sit at the computer all day. Free download.

3 useful keyboard shortcuts info-graphics for MT4. Didn't know there were so many and including 'undo' for some procedures.

Seems you know how to use metatrader

Is there any major difference between a virtual server (metatrader virtual server)

And Beeks vps (IG) 

"

You can also use your VPS to trade using MetaTrader 4 from any computer, just by logging in to your VPS. 

Our VPS is provided by Beeks, and is available completely free of charge to clients who maintain a balance of £5000 or more. Otherwise, it costs £50 per month."

except the price?

@Kodiak, I really don't know too much about these myself, never really got into actually running EAs.

I suspect any vps should do the same job no matter the provider (Metatrader or Beets via IG) therefore should just be down to a matter of cost.

Hopefully some who uses them can pitch in with a view.

Ok, I think with Beeks vps its possible to run more than one mt4 at the same time?

though as in PRT can't be sure if IG has a full version.

Price wise IG price matches Beeks 'Silver' package.

Thanks for sharing @Kodiak,  very good detailed and informative article on how to use the built-in MT4 Strategy Tester function from setting up to back-testing to running on a demo account.
