STRATEGY QUANT ON VPS

Hi Marc,

I’m Riccardo from Sapienza Finanziaria,

I inform you that I have run some tests with SQ on my VPS
My VPS has a Xeon Dual Core processor, 2GB RAM and Win Server 2008.
SQ slowed the system but worked for about 8 consecutive hours without any problems.
I am sure that by using a more powerful VPS, the slowness problems could definitely be solved.

thank you for sharing your experience. Although I think runningSQ on standard desktop computer is more efficient in terms of money spent vs computing power,

it is possible to run it also on VPS, which has some other advantages.

I can understand paying for a VPS for live trading, but for developing strategies, why pay for a hosted server? You could buy several powerful PC’s that would have much better computing power for the cost of a years VPS.

Indeed. High-end VPS costs a lot of $ per month. In calculation that we need to FIND , IMPROVE and OPTIMIZE strategies, then VPS seems to be not good in costs.

Risk Disclosure:
Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
