    Trading & access

    6 included
    • Run trading platforms compatible with your chosen Windows or Linux system. Platform licenses and market-data subscriptions are separate, and available CPU and RAM determine how much you can run at once.
    • No plan-imposed limit on exchange connections through your trading software. Exchange permissions, data subscriptions, platform limits, and available server resources still apply.
    • No plan-imposed cap on API connections for your trading tools. Broker and API rate limits, account permissions, and available server resources still apply.
    • Run AI agents, compatible runtimes, and your own MCP servers on your VPS. These workloads use your plan’s included CPU, memory, and storage; connect your own APIs and tools.
    • Administrator access on Windows or root access on Linux lets you install compatible platforms, indicators, and tools, and manage your server settings.
    • Run compatible trade copiers such as Replikanto and ETP. Software licenses are separate, and the number of accounts you can copy depends on your software and server resources.

    Network & protection

    5 included
    • Choose Chicago for infrastructure near CME exchange connectivity. Actual latency depends on your broker, data feed, and network route; the latency row shows the estimate for the selected location.
    • Your server has its own IP address for remote access and connecting trading tools. You can use it with services that support IP allowlisting.
    • Always-on DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) protection with advanced traffic filtering, plus firewalls and intrusion detection.
    • Server protection complements network DDoS filtering. You should still keep your operating system and trading software updated and protect your account credentials; no protection eliminates every security risk.
    • Traffic is not billed per gigabyte. Connection speed depends on your plan and location; unmetered bandwidth does not mean unlimited network speed.

    • Fewer Hops
    • Reduced Slippage

Run Tradovate on your VPS

  1. Connect to your Windows VPS

    Use the server address and credentials in your control panel with Remote Desktop on Windows or Windows App on Mac.

  2. Open Tradovate

    Launch the desktop client if selected at checkout, or install the official client and sign in to your account.

  3. Verify your workspace and account

    Choose simulation or live deliberately, configure charts and DOM panels, and test any supported integrations before placing live orders.

  4. Disconnect without signing out

    Close the remote connection, not the application or Windows session. Apps can keep running while the VPS is on. Monitor reconnects, account sessions, and scheduled maintenance.

What is a VPS for Tradovate?

A Tradovate VPS is a remote desktop for the Tradovate client and compatible local tools connected to your account. Tradovate remains a cloud-based service; a VPS is useful for keeping your desktop workspace or approved integrations separate from your everyday computer.

Choosing the best VPS for Tradovate

Base sizing on your charts, DOM panels, and any permitted local integrations. Check connection and automation permissions for your account, especially when using a prop firm. A VPS does not replace Tradovate subscriptions, market-data access, or account risk controls.

Built for Tradovate

Optimized for Tradovate.

Your Tradovate VPS stays online for every CME Globex session, hosted in Chicago on a typical 0.52 ms route to CME.

CME Globex equity-index futures trade from Sunday 5 PM to Friday 4 PM Chicago time, pausing for an hour each afternoon. Between your Remote Desktop check-ins, your VPS stays online with Tradovate open, market data keeps flowing and your strategies keep running.

Regular hours in Chicago time (CT); holidays and early closes vary. Check-ins are illustrative.

Built for funded prop firm traders. Evaluation and funded accounts on one desktop.

Sign in through Tradovate or Rithmic, and your evaluation and funded accounts trade from the same desktop, still running when you disconnect.

Connected through Tradovate and Rithmic: Apex Trader Funding, Lucid Trading, Tradeify, My Funded Futures and 26 more.

Compatible with leading trade copiers. Run funded-account workflows with tools such as Replikanto, CrossTrade, and other platform-specific trade copiers. Compare features & pricing

Tradovate vs NinjaTrader on a VPS

Tradovate connects its desktop or browser workspace to a cloud-based trading service. Hosting the desktop on a VPS keeps your workspace and compatible trade copier independent of your home computer.

NinjaTrader provides a Windows desktop environment for NinjaScript indicators and strategies. Choose around the tools you use, your broker or prop firm account, and the supported data connection; a VPS does not change your account permissions.

Compare NinjaTrader and Tradovate

Pre-configured for Apex, Lucid and Tradeify accounts.

Run Apex, Lucid and Tradeify accounts in the same hosted Tradovate workspace, with your supported connection selected at checkout. Keep evaluations, funded accounts and compatible copier software available when your local computer disconnects.

Performance Hardware

What changes when Tradovate runs on QuantVPS.

Two things change when Tradovate moves off your desk: how it holds up in a fast market, and the hardware under it.

Volatility

Trade the Open and the News Without Tradovate Freezing or Disconnecting. Stable through market volatility.

The CME open, CPI, and FOMC produce the data bursts that freeze home PCs and drop consumer connections, often with positions on. A dedicated Tradovate VPS runs your platform with dedicated CPU, memory, and network on enterprise-grade hardware in top-tier datacenters with 24/7 on-site engineering; that is what 99.999% uptime is built on. One DOM and a few charts run comfortably on VPS Lite+; multi-chart workspaces with a copier size up to VPS Pro+.

On CME Globex, resting orders at the same price generally fill in the order they arrive. With your platform in Chicago, a limit joins the queue earlier and an exit reaches the book sooner.

  1. Step 1: Rest a limit on the ladderA BUY limit joins the queue at its price on the DOM.
  2. Step 2: Move up the queueSellers hit the bid. The heat at your price thins as the orders ahead of yours fill.
  3. Step 3: Fill, on the tape and the chartYour print, your fill bubble, your open position.

Execution

Low-Latency Tradovate Execution from a Chicago VPS Next to CME. Optimized low-latency routing.

Tradovate's order servers sit in Chicago, and so does our datacenter. Running the Tradovate desktop platform on a Tradovate VPS gives you 0.52ms latency to CME, so your ES, NQ, and CL orders reach the exchange with almost no network in the way. From Tradovate's gateway, your order rides a dedicated exchange connection into CME's matching engines in Aurora; the hop you control is the one we minimize. Fills land closer to the price you clicked, which is the whole game in scalping and in prop firm evaluations where every tick counts against a drawdown.

Illustration with sample prices, not live market data. The route figure is the published typical figure for Chicago, USA, not a live measurement. Latency shortens the route; it does not guarantee a fill or a price.

Questions & Answers

Tradovate VPS FAQ.

Tradovate questions, answered
Sound familiar?5 common ones

Ever missed a setup because you were away from your desk?

Market data keeps flowing and your strategies keep running.

If any of these sound familiar, a trading VPS is the fix.

Tradovate already hosts its account services in the cloud. A VPS keeps your chosen client, workspace, and compatible local integrations separate from your everyday computer. You do not need one simply to keep cloud account records available.

Connect to the Windows desktop and use the official Tradovate client or supported browser. Sign in to the correct live, simulation, or prop firm account and verify market-data subscriptions before restoring your workspace.

Use a copier that explicitly supports your connection and account type. Some copying tools run locally and others are cloud services. Verify permissions with your prop firm and test quantity scaling, disconnects, and follower positions.

No. API access, authentication, and any eligibility requirements come from Tradovate. If your account supports a custom client, host it with token renewal, request-limit handling, and explicit order safeguards.

Browser or desktop tabs, chart count, depth displays, and local copiers contribute to load. Size for those local applications, not for Tradovate’s cloud infrastructure, and test responsiveness during busy futures sessions.

Chicago is a relevant starting point for supported futures routing. Test the connection used by your actual Tradovate account and companion tools. A nearby server does not override broker processing, prop firm rules, or exchange conditions.
