Hi @Kiek, yes I left out the part where I had 6 EAs before I found a way that works haha. I use one called fxvoodoo, and the verified charts and backtesting we're very attractive, however I noticed anything larger than a micro lot would always end in a stop-loss. So my equity was full of peaks and troughs.

I worked around that being imaginative... I opened up a second account, registered my voodoo acct as a private signal, and copied trades into a second account; and I withdraw from my voodoo account every week so it keeps trading micro lots and increase the lot size when I can on my second one acct. So one account places trades, and the other has compounding returns :)

With home servers though, that's ideal if you have good, reliable connection. I use a home server (go microserver gen 7) because I have 8GB ram and it cost me $300, whereas a vps is normally 1-2gb ram and where I have multiple mt4 platforms running, a vps would lag.

Depending on how tech-savvy you are, I'm actually currently learning the google cloud platform, and I'm working on a template where using a Windows virtual machine instance, your ram increases every time an mt4 instance is installed, so you can run a scalable mt4 vps. However that's not fully functional yet ;)
