Im looking to signup with SWVPS for their $18 package that support tells me I can run around 2-3 MT4 platforms, the package has

Disk Storage Space 50 GB
Guaranteed Physical Memory 1 GB
Bandwidth (Monthly Data Transfer)1000 GB
Processor 1000 Mhz

Ive been compairing this to commercialnetworkservices.com that has good reviews on this website. The plan they have is the
Windows VPS Standard for $30
15G Hard Disk
384MB RAM

What I cant understand is people have stated on this thread that they can run 40 mt4 platforms on CNS but there specs dotn lookm as good as SWVPS while they tell me I can only run 3 mt4- how can this be???

Can anyone explain this I would appreciate it.

CNS does not oversell their server space. What they tell you is yours is what they give you. Other companies tend to over promise and when you actually go to use their server, there is all types of hidden limitations (max # of running programs, etc).

People are not always so impeccable with their word, so it's not always a matter of lining up specs 1:1. You must live test server to see if what they advertise lives up to the hype. I suggest testing one month of each and see for yourself.

The best thing to do is to purchase 1 month of each and see for yourself who offers the best value.

BTW, CNS also has real support. They've helped me out on stuff they did not have to. A completely unmanaged server is like buying a new or used laptop. You get access to your desktop and then you are completely on your own.

I'll also recommend CNS as cheapest is not always the best. Make sure to double check and compare latency as that is an integral part of running successful EA's. You'd be surprised how gaining a pip or two with better latency will affect your bottom line.

I use one from Interserver.
I have had five MT4 open with EA, and or signal's trading no problem. No closing at odd hours for maintenance (means getting up in middle of the night to re open Mt4). I am sure it could run many more MT4.
To get it go here: https://interserver.net/r/194648
On right menu click Cloud VPS.
Choose KVM - click the windows icon. 1 slice is $8. Then click buy now.
