Metatrader must be hosted on window VPS server, not a linux one, not an unix one.
the VPS computer is better start from 512 mb ram.
I subscribe to swvps but relocate to L.A, already 1month with them.
No downtime that I'm not aware of, currently running 9 MT4 on my VPS using 300-400MB RAM.
20usd for 700mb RAM, very cheap! and they already disable all the services that are not needed.
The only thing I'm worry is that swvps seems like a one man show company.
I set a system with 9 EA´s on a VPS. Great beginning on the system. Diversification on strategies, pairs, time frames en EA´s make a definite plus in risk and money management.
But now, 10 days later, I changed the setting of some of the EA´s to go LONG ONLY. One of the EA´s is not obeying; keeps trading short.
So, I deleted this rebel EA, the chart, even the mql cache that resides in the "expert folder" on any MT4 platform.
But, the EA keeps opening sell operations. Once I close the trade (demo account) between a few seconds, it opens a sell operation, again and again.
So, there must be another cache or similar kind of memory in the platform. Anybody has an idea of where this cache might be located, or any type of solution to this problem?
The only way an EA can be running is if it is attached to chart in metatrader.
If you have removed it then the only thing I can think of is that you have another instance of metatrader running with that EA attached.
Look in taskmanager to see if there are any extra terminal's running or users logged in.
Scheduled task to auto close and open the terminal
Hi all,
I have found that it is a good idea to close the trading terminal's down and restart them regularly to keep things running smoothly.
I have set up a scheduled task in windows to do this every day.
Save the 2 attached files to your PC.
endprograms.txt - will close terminals
startterminal.txt - will open terminals
Open the file endprograms.txt with notepad:
You will see in the file there is a command " taskkill /im terminal.exe ", when this file is run it will close all running instances of metatrader "terminals".
Save this file with the extension .BAT
You can now try this by double clicking the file from windows explorer.
Open the file startterminal.txt with notepad:
The location and the .exe file to be run must be included in this file.
The start "1" "C:\Program Files (x86)\MetaTrader1\terminal.exe" must be changed for the location of the terminal.exe you want to open.
You can find the location of your terminal.exe file by right clicking on it in windows explorer and selecting properties.
More than 1 start command can be issued by including a new command line starting with " start "2" " etc.
When you have finished the changes save the file with the extension .cmd
You can test this by double clicking the file from windows explorer.
Set up a scheduled task:
Go to Start/Accessories/System Tools/Scheduled tasks/Add Scheduled task
Browse to the location of the endprograms.BAT and set the scheduler to run the file as you require. Then set up a scheduled task to run the startterminal.cmd a minute or 2 later.
ciberpal,
Then you must have a session of metatrader that is still running, check all the sessions and kill the one you do not want. Sometime, one session is not killed althrough you have closed the metatrader there, so the session is still running.
