## How to Set Up Your Trading Server

<Steps>
  <Step title="Order a Windows Server">
    Deploy an Evevps [Windows RDP](/windows-rdp/overview). If you plan to run 1-2 MT4 instances, the **\[PLAN\_NAME]** plan is perfect. If you plan to run 5+ terminals simultaneously, look at the **\[PLAN\_NAME\_3]** or **\[PLAN\_NAME\_4]** plans.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect to the Desktop">
    Wait a few minutes for the setup email, then [connect via Remote Desktop (RDP)](/windows-rdp/connect). You'll be greeted by a standard Windows desktop.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download Your Broker's MT4/MT5">
    Open the web browser on the server, log into your Forex broker's website, and download their specific MT4 or MT5 installer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install and Log In">
    Run the installer just like you would on your home PC. Open MetaTrader, log into your trading account, and load up your charts and Expert Advisors.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Disconnect Safely">
    When your bots are running and you're ready to leave, **do not click 'Shut Down'**. Just close the Remote Desktop window by clicking the 'X' at the top of the screen.

    The server will keep running perfectly in the background, executing your trades 24 hours a day!
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  **Pro-Tip:** If you are running multiple EAs across different accounts, you can install MetaTrader multiple times on the same server! Just change the installation folder name (e.g., `C:\Program Files\MetaTrader-Account1`, `C:\Program Files\MetaTrader-Account2`) during the setup wizard.
</Tip>
