Running high-frequency crypto trading bots on your personal laptop is risky. If your home Wi-Fi drops or your computer goes to sleep, your bot could miss critical trades and liquidate your positions.
By moving your bot to a FlashRDP Linux VPS, you get an enterprise-grade trading environment:
- 1 Gbps Unmetered Connection: Ultra-low latency to crypto exchange APIs (Binance, Bybit, Coinbase).
- 100% Uptime: A dedicated machine that stays online 24/7, immune to local power outages.
- Full root Access: Total control to deploy custom Docker containers, Python environments, and security firewalls.
- Pure NVMe Storage: Fast logging and database operations for your bot’s transaction history.
Running Python Bots (Hummingbot/Custom) on Linux
If you are running Python-based bots or Docker containers, a headless Linux VPS is the most efficient choice.
- Order a Linux VPS (We recommend the SILVER or GOLD plan for running multiple bots and large backtesting datasets).
- Log in via SSH.
- Update the system and install Python and Screen:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y python3 python3-pip git screen
- Clone your bot repository and install dependencies:
git clone https://github.com/your-repo/your-trading-bot.git
cd your-trading-bot
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
- Start a screen session and run your bot so it stays active when you disconnect:
screen -S tradingbot
python3 main.py
Need to run visual C# bots or MT4/MT5? If your trading bot requires a graphical interface, you should deploy a FlashRDP Windows RDP instead, which provides full Administrator access and a remote desktop.
