Hi Glenn,

this free VPS has 348MB RAM and 5GB HDD. What will you setup there? Setup a Win OS won't do... Please give us a feedback on how its performing...

Hi Acid,

here you can get the VPS für ~4,50€/month:

This is an affiliate link. There you should see the VM or can configure it that way. The price will be a little less than normal and i will also get some cents :-) Its using cookies so don't deactivate cookies or the link won't function.


You must select the KVM vServer and at first you can only select Linux distributions. But when finished the registration you can change the OS to server 2012/Win7/Win8. There are some images you can use but you must have a windows key-code on your own.

Thats it...

I don't know if I can figure it out. Looks like I'll have to choose a Linux OS for it, which may be simple, but will complicate it for "me". I was hoping perhaps somebody here with more computer skills/knowledge would be interested in it, since it's free...and tell us "how easy" it is (or isn't!).

I've got a full "to do list" today. Maybe I'll have time for it later in the week.

I wonder if there are any free VPS that use Windows OS & do not require a CC#. (I just don't like giving it out for "free" things.)

Thanks Sundance! Will check it out later...

Instead of a VPS how difficult is it to use a different broker? That would also solve the problem of running additional demos, right?

Many roads lead to rome :-)
The advantage of a VPS is that it runs outside your home and is 24/7 online. At home in most cases you don't wan't a computer running 24/7. But surely you can buy a PC and run several instances with different brokers. But if i remember correctly i don't know if it's allowed to run Z1 and Z2 at the same time with the same broker!? There was something JCL posted somewhere.... But i can be wrong...

I can run one demo instance of zorro with the fxcm plugin and one with the mt4 bridge on the same pc or vps. So this is a max of 2 strategies being tested per PC or vps without zorro S.

The solution is zorro s or multiple vps, this is simply a cost issue. I'll have no problem committing to zorro s and a robust vps solution when I have successfully tested the strategies either z strategies or my own.

I'd never run a live robot on real money on a home pc, I trust neither my electricity supply, my broadband provider or my fellow dwellers not to mess it up.

Testing is a bit of a nightmare though, as I've limited scope to test the z strategies and my own.

I think I know the answer to this one, but I'll ask anyway, jcl why can't there be a zorro version that is limited to demo accounts only but allows multiple Demo instances to test multiple strategies on a single pc or vps?

Lol. Those guys at vps.me are really funny. I tried the free VPS but when it comes to verifying the account throug a SMS i get a 'Clickatell: ERR: 108, Invalid or missing api_id'

This is since yesterday and i wrote them a message. Also when i registered i got an email as a confirmation. This email had my given password in clear letters. This is a totally NO GO and unprofessional. What are those guys doing? When i look at there forum there is only one entry. Seems they are really new to the whole market. With the picture they have given me so far i think in three month they are gone. :-)

To make this clear, it is allowed to run Z1 and Z2 at the same time, but only on demo accounts, not on real accounts. It does not matter if that's with the same broker or with different brokers.

Ah. Okay. I was then near to the truth.
