Hosted MT5 Pricing: What It Costs in 2026
Hosted MT5 with PineConnector Edge starts at $59 per month, and hosting is included at every tier, so there is no separate server to rent. Compared with running MetaTrader 5 yourself, where you pay for a plan and then rent a VPS on top, Edge folds everything into one price. This guide breaks down what each Edge plan costs, what is included, and how that compares to doing it yourself.
How Much Does PineConnector Edge Cost?
PineConnector has three plans, billed monthly, and hosted MT5 through PineConnector Edge is built into every one, so the price you see is the price you pay, with no add-on server fee. Core is $59, Plus is $129 and Pro is $199 per month. Active subscribers keep the price they signed up at for as long as the subscription stays active.
| Plan | Monthly price | Total connections | Hosted MT5 included | Edge regions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Core | $59 | 3 | 1 | London, UK or Virginia, US |
| Plus | $129 | 10 | 3 | London, UK or Virginia, US |
| Pro | $199 | 25 | 5 | London, UK or Virginia, US |
Each plan sets a total number of concurrent connections and an included hosted MT5 allowance. Core includes 3 connections and 1 hosted instance, Plus 10 and 3, and Pro 25 and 5. Each hosted instance uses one connection; you can self-host the rest. Edge is available in London, UK and Virginia, US. Additional hosted instances are planned at $35 per month each, up to your plan’s connection limit.
What Is Included in the Price?
Every current plan includes hosted MT5 through Edge at no separate charge for its included instances. You enter your broker login in the Portal. Edge runs the PineConnector EA on MT5; third-party Expert Advisors are not supported.
How Does That Compare to Running MT5 Yourself?
Running MetaTrader 5 yourself has two costs that are easy to miss when you only look at the plan price. First, the plan itself, which starts at $59 per month for the Core plan. Second, the VPS you rent to keep MT5 running around the clock, which is billed separately. If you self-host, ForexVPS (affiliate link) offers Windows VPS plans for MetaTrader. Add your own setup and maintenance time, and the true cost of doing it yourself is higher than the plan price alone. A common surprise in support is that the VPS shows up as a second bill on top of the plan, which is exactly the cost Edge folds into one price.
Here is a simple way to see it. Say you run a single account. On the self-hosted side you would pay $59 per month for the Core plan, then rent a VPS on top to keep MetaTrader 5 running, so your real monthly cost is the plan plus the server. With Edge Core at $59 per month, the server is already part of the price, so that one figure is your whole bill. The difference between the two comes down to what a VPS would have cost you, plus the time you would have spent setting it up and keeping it online.
| Cost Piece | Do It Yourself | PineConnector Edge |
|---|---|---|
| PineConnector plan | From $59 per month | From $59 per month |
| Server or hosting | A VPS you rent, billed separately | Included in the plan |
| Setup and maintenance | Your time | Handled for you |
| One monthly bill | No, plan plus VPS | Yes |
Is There a Cheaper Way to Try It First?
Yes. You can try the Core plan, which includes one hosted MT5 instance, for 7 days for $7. After 7 days it renews at $59 per month unless you cancel. The trial is available once per member, for members without an Edge plan. Connect a demo account first, send a test alert from TradingView, and move to a live account once you are satisfied with how it runs.
Do the Plans Limit My Strategies or My Accounts?
Plans limit concurrent account connections, not the number of strategies. Core includes 3 connections, Plus 10 and Pro 25. The included Edge hosting allowances are 1, 3 and 5 respectively.
Which Plan Is Right for Me?
Choose by the number of accounts you want to connect at the same time and how many you want hosted. Core includes 3 connections and 1 hosted instance, Plus 10 and 3, and Pro 25 and 5. You can run remaining connections on your own PC or VPS.
Will My Price Change Later?
Your price is locked while you stay subscribed. As long as your subscription stays active, you keep the price you signed up at, even if prices rise later for new customers. The live pricing page always shows the current prices.
