Explore NinjaTrader VPSYour EA works every tick of the week, not just the hours your computer happens to be on.
Start the long runs on the VPS and let them finish overnight, while your own machine stays free.

MT4 and MT5 on a real Windows desktop, opened from your Mac. No Wine, no workarounds, and nothing stops when the lid closes.
MetaTrader on MacWhy a VPS
One power cut, one router restart or one Windows update at 3 a.m. is enough to leave a position unattended. And the hosting built into MetaTrader solves only half the problem.
| What you need | Home PC | MetaTrader’s built-in hosting | Hosting Stak VPS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Keep trading through power cuts, dropped lines and overnight restarts | No: The EA stops until you notice | Yes | 99% SLA, MT4 and MT5 restart on their own |
| A real Windows desktop you can log in to | Only from your desk | No: No remote desktop | From Windows, Mac, tablet and phone |
| EAs that rely on DLLs, installers or external tools | Yes | No: DLL calls are not allowed | Full administrator access |
| cTrader, NinjaTrader, trade copiers and any other software | Yes | No: MT4 and MT5 only | Anything that runs on Windows |
| Several terminals and accounts on one subscription | As long as the PC copes | No: One account per subscription | Up to 8 terminals on the Standard plan |
| Your setup safe if a disk fails | No: Templates, EAs and settings gone | No: No backup of your own | RAID storage and, from Basic up, a daily backup to a second data centre |
What about the “free” VPS from your broker? It usually comes with strings attached — a minimum balance or a monthly volume to hit — and it ties you to that one broker. A Hosting Stak VPS is yours: any broker, any account, no volume targets.

Infrastructure
Your edge is the strategy. Ours is making sure it never misses a tick because of the machine underneath it.
vCores at 3.4 GHz and above from the Basic plan up, faster than many dedicated servers: indicators, backtests and extra terminals do not queue for the CPU.
Servers in European data centres, on a high-performance network with unmetered bandwidth on every plan.
Each VPS is kept apart from the others for performance and security, on RAID storage behind always-on Anti-DDoS protection.
From the Basic plan up, your terminals, EAs, templates and settings are copied every day to a second data centre, and copies are kept for three days.
Full administrator access and a web control panel to restart, reinstall and check on your VPS whenever you like, without opening a ticket.
Data centres watched and monitored around the clock. If something breaks we act at once, and availability is guaranteed in writing.
How it works
If you can use a Windows PC, you can use a Hosting Stak VPS. It is the same thing, except it never switches off.
You pay month by month, by PayPal or bank transfer. Start small: you can move to the next plan when your trading grows.
The VPS arrives ready to use, with Windows Server 2022 set up. When the activation email lands, open the Console in the client area and choose your password: from then on you connect over Remote Desktop.
Connect from Windows, Mac or your phone, install your platform and EAs as you would on any computer, and close the laptop. The strategy keeps working.
They are made by Microsoft and they are free. On Windows there is nothing to install.
Reviews
“Hosting Stak’s service is excellent, for its competitive prices and for the speed and professionalism of the team. One example? I bought the service and was left speechless: it was activated the same day, and that day was a public holiday! Not to mention how disarmingly easy it is to use.”
Franco TassiForex trader“Customer support is very active, almost instant and very efficient, and it does not leave you alone with your problem: it steps in and gives you real help.”
Chantal SalaProfessional forex trader“A very fast and reliable Forex VPS, despite the workload I put it through during the week. Friendly, helpful support. Top-level security, which matters a great deal given the sensitive data it holds. Highly recommended!”
Pamela RossiForex trader“Hosting Stak’s Forex VPS has let me streamline and improve my trading. I run a lot of EAs and indicators and have never had a problem.”

Contact supportIt is a Windows computer that lives in a data centre and stays on and online 24 hours a day. You install your trading platform on it and open it from your PC, Mac or phone over Remote Desktop. Traders use it to keep Expert Advisors, signals and trade copiers running without interruption, even when their own computer is off.
They run on the same machines. The Forex VPS starts smaller and is sized in MetaTrader terminals; the NinjaTrader VPS starts at 3 vCores and 6 GB of RAM because futures platforms are heavier, and every plan includes daily backup and 24/7 support. If you run NinjaTrader, ATAS or Quantower, start there.
Over Remote Desktop. On Windows the app is already there (Remote Desktop Connection). On Mac, iPhone, iPad and Android you download Microsoft’s free app, now called Windows App. What you see is an ordinary Windows desktop, and you use it like your own PC.
Yes. It works like any Windows PC: download the installer in the browser and run it. You have administrator access, so any EA, platform or broker is fine. For the best performance we suggest keeping the server for trading only.
Yes. Every price on this site is in euro and already includes VAT: what you see on the plan card is what you pay each month. On the order page the plans are listed by size (Cheap, S, M, L, XL, XXL) and the fee is shown before VAT, but the total is the one you see here.
You pay month by month by PayPal, either with automatic renewal or manually, through the link you are emailed each month; through PayPal you can also pay by card, without opening an account. If you would rather pay by bank transfer, ask support. There is no setup fee. There is no free trial and no money-back guarantee, which is exactly why the plans are monthly with no contract: start on the smallest one and cancel whenever you like. A PayPal subscription is cancelled from your own PayPal account. Your statutory rights as a consumer are set out in our Terms and conditions.
Open a ticket with the contact form or email us. We reply in English or Italian within 2 working hours Monday to Friday (9:30–19:00, Italian time) and within 10 hours at night and at weekends. From the Basic plan up, support is available 24 hours a day, every day.
In Europe, on two separate sites with redundant power and networking. There is more on the Data centres page.
