Estimated 0.52ms from Chicago to CME.
Futures on CME Globex. Home of Tradovate, Rithmic, and NinjaTrader. Orders and market data skip your home connection.
Performance plans are 85% faster per thread, the speed charting and order-entry platforms feel most. Charting and order-entry platforms run mostly on one or two threads, so a faster thread keeps charts and the DOM responsive.
A workload estimate, not a limit. Platforms, charts and market data share the memory, so leave headroom for busy sessions.
Room for the operating system, your platforms, market data and files.
The operating system and installed software use part of it. Choose a larger plan to keep more data.
Recommended for CME Futures: Windows.
Windows suits desktop platforms such as NinjaTrader and MetaTrader. Ubuntu suits Linux bots, APIs and Docker.
Speed is how much data moves at once, not order latency.
Latency is how long one message waits. Actual throughput depends on the network route and workload.
Spread charts across the screens of your own computer in one Remote Desktop session, up to the number each plan lists.
Tick "Use all my monitors" in Remote Desktop before you connect.
The typical time from purchase until your VPS is ready.
An extra recovery point for your VPS, at no extra cost. RAID1 mirrors data across drives to protect against a single drive failure.
Keep separate copies of important trading files as well. RAID1 is not a backup. It does not protect against deletion or data corruption.
Alerts when your platform or data feed stops. Free on every plan during the beta.
Agents you can install: Claude Code (Linux), Codex (Linux), OpenCode (Linux), Hermes (Linux), OpenClaw (Linux), Cursor CLI (Windows or Linux), AutoGPT (Linux), n8n (Linux), LM Studio (Windows), Gemini CLI (Linux).
Agents run on your plan's CPU, memory and storage with your own API keys. Local models need more memory. Your own MCP servers and the QuantVPS REST API work too. Unsure which agent to use? Our team helps you set it up at no charge.

Your CME futures VPS is typically deployed and ready in under 60 seconds after purchase, reachable over Remote Desktop. Dedicated servers take 30–120 minutes.
Volatility
CME message rates explode at the open, on CPI, and on FOMC, exactly when home PCs freeze with positions on. A dedicated CME VPS provides 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 platform runs comfortably on VPS Lite+; multi-platform desks size up to Pro+ or Ultra+.

Backups
Platform configurations, feed credentials, chart templates, and strategy settings take hours to rebuild. On every VPS plan, automatic off-site backups capture your entire CME VPS, so a failure means a quick restore rather than a rebuild during market hours.
Remote Desktop on Windows
Access
Keep your platform, data feed, and automation running around the clock on your CME VPS. Our web control panel and included RDP access give you full command from a laptop, phone, or iPad, so you can manage positions through overnight sessions and the Globex reopen without your home PC being involved.
