In a recent research initiative, MetaQuotes conducted a comprehensive
analysis focused on traders utilizing virtual servers for automated trading.
The study centered on users of MetaTrader VPS, a virtual hosting service
designed for continuous trading with minimal network delays. The results have
been presented in visually informative infographics, offering valuable insights
into the user audience and their preferences.
Research Sheds Light on Traders Leveraging Virtual Servers
One key finding of the research pertains to the network latency between the
virtual machine and the broker's server. An overwhelming 86% of traders express
a clear preference for ultra-low latencies, not exceeding 4 milliseconds. This
emphasis on high-speed connections is driven by the need for predictable and
stable operation of algorithms running on virtual machines, minimizing the risk
of price changes occurring before orders reach the server.
Traders' preference on latency
Another significant aspect of the study delves into the purposes for which
traders utilize VPS. Surprisingly, trading robots emerged as more than seven
times more popular than trading signal subscriptions. The data revealed that 86%
of users leverage automated systems on virtual machines, while only 12% use
hosting services for copying signals.

Geographical insights from the study unveiled that 75% of the most popular
trading servers are concentrated in just three countries. Additionally, an
intriguing revelation surfaces concerning the geographical distribution of
traders utilizing VPS, with the top three countries located on different
continents.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
