This is not a typical managed account! This is Trade-Assist!
There are many great differences between a typical "managed account" and our unique Trade-Assist program.
| WHAT IS VPS HOSTING: |
 |
HOW DOES TRADE-ASSIST WORK: |
"VPS" stands for "Virtual Private Server". This is essentially a "virtual computer" designed just for you, just for running your Trade-Assist software.
How it works: We have extremely large (and extremely expensive) servers hosted in a premier US data center that hosts thousands of other servers. On these servers, we create VPS accounts, or "virtual computers". These virtual computers run 24/7 and host your Trade-Assist software, even if your personal computer is having problems.
When you log into this virtual computer using our super easy web-based access, you will see a desktop that looks very similar to your own. There is a start menu, task bar, icons on the desktop, etc. Essentially, this is a brand new computer dedicated to running your Trade-Assist and nothing else.
One primary advantage to VPS hosting is that both you and our technical team can access it. If for any reason you experience any problems, we can log into the VPS immediately and fix it, without having to troubleshoot issues on your personal PC. This also makes it very easy for us to set up your account for you.

There are two programs that run our Trade-Assist program.
First, we will install Signal Execution Software that will check for new signals every 1 minute.
Second, we will install the MetaTrader 4 platform for your broker and an Expert Advisor.
How it works: When the Signal Execution Software finds an alert, it works directly with the Expert Advisor and MetaTrader 4 to execute the trade in your account, immediately.
Currently, the Trade-Assist platform will execute the WaveFX signals only. The 240FX signals will be added as an optional strategy in January.
You can have full control over these trades if you want to, adjusting stop losses or closing the trades early. Or, just let the signals take care of the trades.
Also, if you choose, you can log into the same metatrader account on your personal computer so you can "watch" the trades happen in real time.

Are we saying managed accounts and expert advisors are bad?
Absolutely not! Some managed accounts are great, and there is nothing wrong with running an expert advisor. The above table is only designed to point out the differences between our VPS-hosted Trade-Assist program and common managed accounts and EA's.
This 12 minute video goes into some of the finer details of the Trade-Assist platform and how it works.
