Why traders look at FXVM alternatives
FXVM's prices sit at the low end of this list, so the reasons to compare are usually RAM, refund terms or futures, not price:
- RAM per plan. FXVM Lite VPS has 1.5GB and the largest fixed plan has 4GB. Six of the seven alternatives sell an 8GB plan.
- One app or a full VPS. The $15 Virtual Desktop runs one MT4 or MT5 platform, and FXVM says there is "No browser access on virtual desktop".
- Refund window and discounts. FXVM's money-back guarantee lasts 7 days and excludes discounted products. Four alternatives give 14 days and one gives 30.
- The company behind it. The FXVM footer reads "ThinkHuge Ltd. dba FXVM.com" and the ForexVPS footer reads "Think Huge Ltd dba ForexVPS.net", so moving between them keeps the same operator.
- Futures. FXVM has a Futures Trading VPS page but publishes no latency figure to CME.

Pick FXVM if:

- You need a city QuantVPS doesn't have, such as Manchester, Washington DC, Miami, Zurich, Mumbai, Sydney, Hong Kong, Dubai or Seoul.
- You want to test for a week for $0.99 before you pay for a month.
Pick QuantVPS if:
- Your terminals and EAs need 4GB at entry, or 8GB on 4 cores, which FXVM doesn't sell.
- You also trade CME futures from Chicago, for example on a NinjaTrader VPS. For other futures platforms there is a CME futures VPS in Chicago.
- You want 14 days to ask for a refund, with backups and DDoS protection on every plan.
How to choose an FXVM alternative
- Count your terminals. FXVM sizes Lite VPS for 1 to 2 terminals on 1.5GB. If you run more, compare plans by RAM, not by price; see how to run several MT5 terminals on one VPS.
- One app or a full VPS. A trade copier, a browser or a second platform needs a full Windows VPS.
- Pick the city by your broker. Ask your broker which data center its trade server uses, then choose that city.
- Read the refund terms with any discount. FXVM, ForexVPS and TradingFXVPS all exclude discounted products from refunds.
- Check who keeps backups. MyForexVPS doesn't include them and NYC Servers charges $10 a month.
