    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. Software licenses are separate, and the number of accounts you can copy depends on your software and server resources.

    Network & protection

    4 included
    • 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.
    How we protect your server

    • BetaQuantVPS Detect+ is in beta and free on every plan during the beta. It monitors NinjaTrader 8 and other trading platforms, and data feed and broker connections (for example Rithmic, CQG, Tradovate and IBKR), and alerts by email and in the dashboard.
    • Our industry-leading 99.999% uptime guarantee SLA gives a service credit for any covered outage of a minute or more, under the SLA terms. It covers service availability, not broker, exchange, or trading-platform availability.

    Flexible plans

    3 included
    • There is no one-time server setup charge. Your selected plan, billing period, and any optional add-ons determine the price shown at checkout.
    • Upgrade from your dashboard as your trading workload grows. To move to a smaller plan, contact support. Available configurations and billing adjustments depend on the change.
    • Cancel your subscription at any time with no hidden fees.

Processor

Standard VPS:
AMD EPYC server cores for reliable multi-core performance
Performance VPS:
AMD Ryzen 9 9950X, a high-clock desktop-class processor
Dedicated:
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X. Single-tenant bare metal: the whole server is yours.
Dedicated+:
AMD Ryzen 9 9950X or 9900X. Single-tenant bare metal: the whole server is yours.

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.

Memory

DDR4
Performance VPS:
DDR5, the latest generation
Dedicated:

A workload estimate, not a limit. Platforms, charts and market data share the memory, so leave headroom for busy sessions.

Storage

Room for the operating system, your platforms, market data and files.

Drive:
Enterprise NVMe
Drive rating:
Up to 7,000 MB/s
Redundancy, dedicated servers:
RAID1 mirror

The operating system and installed software use part of it. Choose a larger plan to keep more data.

Operating system

Ubuntu:
24.04 · 22.04 LTS
Access:
Administrator on Windows, root SSH on Ubuntu

Windows suits desktop platforms such as NinjaTrader and MetaTrader. Ubuntu suits Linux bots, APIs and Docker.

Network

Speed is how much data moves at once, not order latency.

Data transfer:

Standard VPS:
1 Gbps+ (10 Gbps burst)
Performance VPS:
3 Gbps+ (10 Gbps burst)
Dedicated:
1 Gbps+ (3 Gbps burst)

Latency is how long one message waits. Actual throughput depends on the network route and workload.

Monitor support

Spread charts across the screens of your own computer in one Remote Desktop session, up to the number each plan lists.

For 2 screens:
VPS Pro / VPS Pro+ or higher

Tick "Use all my monitors" in Remote Desktop before you connect.

Setup time

The typical time from purchase until your VPS is ready.

VPS plans:
Under 60 seconds
Dedicated servers:
30–120 min
Setup help:

Backtesting

No backtesting:
Sized for live trading, not for backtests on historical data.
Simple backtesting:
Suits simple strategy backtests on historical data. Large datasets or several tests at once can strain this plan.
Moderate backtesting:
Suits larger backtests and historical datasets than the Pro tier. Testing shares CPU and RAM with your live platforms.
Extensive backtesting:
Built for extensive backtesting and strategy optimization on dedicated resources. Test time still depends on your software, data size and strategy.
For backtests:
VPS Pro / VPS Pro+ or higher
Heavier testing:
VPS Ultra / VPS Ultra+ or higher
Optimization runs:
Dedicated

Backups

An extra recovery point for your VPS, at no extra cost. RAID1 mirrors data across drives to protect against a single drive failure.

Included on:
Every Standard and Performance VPS

Keep separate copies of important trading files as well. RAID1 is not a backup. It does not protect against deletion or data corruption.

QuantVPS Detect+ (beta)

Alerts when your platform or data feed stops. Free on every plan during the beta.

Watches:
NinjaTrader 8 and other trading platforms, data feed and broker connections, and the VPS itself
Alerts:
Configurable alerts for critical events

AI Compatible

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.

New York is where US equities, options, and FX meet. One metro, four asset classes.

NYSE and Nasdaq match a few miles across the Hudson in New Jersey, the NY4/NY5 campus in Secaucus hosts the trade servers for the large FX brokers, and the US prediction-market APIs are New York businesses. Our Dedicated and Dedicated+ servers run on the NY4 campus and reach NYSE, Nasdaq and the NY4 broker servers in under 1ms. Standard VPS plans reach NYSE and Nasdaq in 0–2ms.

Markets you reach from New York: NYSE, NASDAQ, Cboe, ICE, NY4 brokers, Polymarket and Kalshi.

NY4 is a financial datacenter in Secaucus, New Jersey, associated with FX broker and liquidity networks. A New York VPS can keep forex terminals and US-equity or options clients trading on NYSE and Nasdaq close to relevant broker gateways. Your account’s assigned endpoint determines the useful route.

New York or Chicago? Pick by the venue your orders hit.

One network, eight datacenters. Put your server beside the venue your orders hit; you reach it from wherever you trade.

Your home-to-VPS connection affects how responsive the remote desktop feels. The VPS-to-venue connection is the separate path your trading software uses.

8 locations. One connected network.

Short paths to the venue. Built for continuity.

Direct peering and Tier-1 carriers keep order routes fast. Multiple carriers and automatic failover support availability.

Your head start

Same order. Shorter trip. Less time for the price to move.

Your orders can reach NYSE and NASDAQ and fill sooner than the same orders from farther away. A market order fills at the price when it arrives, not at the price you clicked.

New York VPS FAQ.

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.

NY4 is a financial datacenter in Secaucus, New Jersey, associated with New York-area broker and liquidity connectivity. Hosting a trading platform near that network can reduce distance to supported FX and US-market gateways. It does not by itself provide exchange colocation, broker access, or a guaranteed order-fill time.

NYSE and NASDAQ match in New Jersey, and the NY4 and NY5 campus in Secaucus hosts trade servers for IC Markets, OANDA, Vantage Markets and other forex brokers. ICE is in the same metro, and Kalshi is headquartered in New York.

Yes. Kalshi, the CFTC-regulated US event-contract exchange, is headquartered in New York. A New York VPS keeps your Kalshi API strategy in the same metro, with a US dedicated IP for API whitelisting.

Yes. Dedicated and Dedicated+ servers are stocked in New York, with under 1ms to NYSE, NASDAQ and NY4 brokers. Dedicated servers run on the NY4 campus. Standard VPS plans there quote 0–2ms to NYSE and NASDAQ. See dedicated servers in New York.

Dedicated and Dedicated+ servers in New York run on the NY4 campus in Secaucus, New Jersey. From there they reach NYSE, NASDAQ, NY4-hosted forex brokers and DAS Trader Pro's New York servers in under 1ms. Standard VPS plans run in our New York datacenter: 0–2ms to NYSE and NASDAQ, 0–10ms to forex brokers and 0–10ms to DAS Trader Pro. Choose New York at checkout and the plan picks the site: a Dedicated order in New York is a NY4 order, and each plan card and the checkout show the site and figure for the plan you pick. Measure the endpoint your account uses before you move a live account.

Most traders in New York run VPS Lite+ at $79.99/month (4 Ryzen cores, 8 GB DDR5). Plans start at $29.99/month, with Ryzen Performance tiers from $39.99/month.

New York is a useful starting region for US equities, options, New York-area FX gateways, and US-facing market APIs. DAS Trader Pro, thinkorswim, and IBKR workflows should still be evaluated against their actual broker endpoints.

No. Your broker and approved routing services determine exchange access. A nearby VPS hosts your terminal or API client; it does not supply exchange membership, market-data entitlements, or a direct-access trading account.

There are two published targets: under 1ms to NYSE and Nasdaq from NY4 on Dedicated and Dedicated+, and 0–2ms on Standard VPS plans. Neither is a universal order-execution guarantee. NYSE, Nasdaq, options venues, FX brokers, and API services use different infrastructure. Measure the endpoint your account actually connects to during your trading session.

It depends on the trade server assigned to your broker account. A New York-hosted account may benefit from local routing, while another account at the same broker may use London. Compare terminal-reported latency before selecting a region.

It can host compatible data collectors and permitted trading clients, with the required runtime and account access. Choose the correct regional API product, protect credentials, and respect rate limits and jurisdictional eligibility.

Consider Chicago when the important connection is a supported CME futures gateway. Consider New York for US-equity, options, or local FX/API routes. For a mixed portfolio, separate servers can avoid forcing unrelated endpoints through one region.

Compatible MT4/MT5, cTrader, DAS Trader, or TWS workloads can share a sufficiently sized VPS, subject to application licenses and account-session rules. During the New York session and US data releases, allow CPU and memory headroom for simultaneous terminal, chart, and copier activity. Keep heavy scans or backtests from exhausting resources needed for live order entry.
