Local Windows PC
Direct access without an additional server environment. Uptime and accessibility depend on power, internet connectivity, restarts and concurrent use of the device.
Technical runtime environment
A stable
operating environment
for NinjaTrader 8.
GoldAutoTradePRO runs in a dedicated Windows environment. NinjaTrader 8, market data, strategy execution and monitoring therefore remain accessible independently of a personal workstation and are clearly separated from it.
The operating environment combines platform, data feed, licence status and broker connection in one controllable setup. Remote access, defined maintenance procedures and continuous status checks provide the technical foundation for controlled live operation.
VPS Basics
What a trading VPS provides — and where its role ends.
A VPS moves the ongoing trading operation to a continuously accessible Windows environment. It creates clear technical responsibilities but does not replace a correctly configured platform or the trading logic itself.
Dedicated Windows VPS
NinjaTrader and GoldAutoTradePRO run separately from the private computer in an always-available Windows environment. On Windows, remote access is typically handled through Remote Desktop (RDP); on macOS, iPhone and iPad, Microsoft Windows App can be used to connect to the remote PC.
Requirements
What matters in a trading VPS.
The decisive factor is not a single marketing metric but the combination of Windows compatibility, performance headroom, stable connectivity and controllable administration.
Windows and resources
Sufficient RAM, CPU performance and SSD storage for NinjaTrader, market data, logs and stable remote operation.
Connectivity and location
A stable route to the data feed and broker matters more than isolated latency claims. The server location should fit the actual order path.
Security and maintenance
Protected credentials, defined update windows, controlled restarts and a traceable user configuration.
Time and session operation
Correct timezone, time synchronisation, active contract and clearly configured trading hours.
Runtime architecture
Platform, data and order route as one operating chain.
