I use CNS-UK… latency is <7ms right now. Don’t go with ForexVPS! I tried them and they suck… latency was 20ms. CNS is really professional. Their website could use some work, but don’t let that throw you off, these guys are good.
Thanks for the quick answer. Do you have a website for them and does it matter if I’m in the US. In other words can I select the UK location because I understand that HF is located in Mauritius, off the coast of Africa.
Yes, sure their website is: Commercial Network Services
No it doesn’t matter that you are in the US, just make sure you sign-up with the UK server. Actually, their servers are in Amsterdam from what I read.
Also, to test latency on the live server, its mt4live.hotforex.com

Great information! I heard really good things about CNS
BTW did you get trades yet? My live account has had 4 trades all winners. I have decided to change additional channels to 8 We’ll see how that goes.

Yea, I’d like to know as well please, thanks! I also keep getting this error: MDP_EURUSD_1.1.6: Wrong MetaTrader Account ID. But, I have the right login info. Nor sure what’s going on, emailed support too. But, if anyone can help please let me know."
Hi,
Im getting the same error too. What did you have to do to resolve this? The EA worked fine on HotForex, then when I tried to run it on FinFX it gives me the error. I turned off the EA in HotForex and am still getting the error…
You have to go to their activation link, they have it in the PDF manual
Just had some trades last night… FINALLY! 50% winners, 50% losers, but more pips on the winners 
Thank you so much!!
(Keep forgetting to hit reply with quote) lol
Np, that’s what forums are for, they are for help. Cause if I help you, you help, me, we all share info so we can ALL make $$$
I’m quite curious why it seems no one using thinkforex as their broker which is recommended by mdp. Anyone has bad experience with them? Im currently using fxprimus and almost wanted to open thinkforex but was held back when no one seems to be using it.
Its probably because Thinkforex doesnt accept US clients. I am demo-ing FinFX and Hotforex (both recommended by MDP for US) and FinFX really has a nice tight spread and no !ECN errors like I was getting on Hot Forex.
Yea, thinkforex doesn’t accept US clients. I haven’t gotten around to FinFX as I just started getting trades with MDP. The !ECN errors you can ignore I believe.
Any new updates on results with this product? I’m really hoping this isn’t just another fluff product, and truly gets you legit results. I’m noob so not much experience, I don’t want to waste my money buying something ineffective. Hope it works out for those who are persistent
Just watched MDP make some very profitable trades on a spike!
Here is the set up thats working well for me:
Broker: FinFx demo
Num Orders Level=0
Additional Channels=8
Max_Simultaneous_Orders=3
FIFO=False
Funky_Exit=1
Min_Lots=0.01
Max_Lots=1.0
Risk=2.0
Use_Stop_Orders=False
Hard_Stop_Trailing=False
I hope this can help someone improve their MDP performance.
I am setting up a VPS now with ThrustVPS for $13 thru UK (Im in US but FinFX is in Finland) and will go live soon. My account is already up 15% in a couple hours.
Nevermind the VPS, too complicated! Just going to use a dedicated laptop and UPS for the cable modem and router.
for the last 2 days my EA went crazy and lost over $100 on a micro account dont understand what am I doing wrong any help would greatly appreciated
VPS is the way to go, you’re latency from home is going to be way too high. It’s just a remote desktop.
Post your settings here, let me see. Also, which broker are you using, and so you have a VPS located near to the broker?
