Futures Trading Workloads

Match The Infrastructure To The Work

HFT & Latency-Sensitive Automation

Place dedicated CPU resources in Chicago, close to CME, with redundant routing for market data, order traffic, and Remote Desktop.

Order Flow, DOM & Footprints

Gamma gives Bookmap, Sierra Chart, heatmaps, footprints, Volume Profile, and dense chart layouts NVIDIA L4 graphics acceleration and dedicated GDDR6 memory.

Algorithmic Futures Trading Automation

Run NinjaTrader and other automated platforms away from the local PC. ServerIQ watches selected platform processes and sends email alerts in under 5 seconds when one stops.

Multi-Account & Social Trading

TradeCopy sends NinjaTrader and Replikanto instructions across a private ChartVPS network at typical 0-1ms copy-signal latency. Add master and copy nodes as the operation grows.

Backtesting, Replay & Optimization

Dedicated Ryzen 9 9950X cores and fast Gen4/Gen5 NVMe shorten large historical runs. Alpha or Delta handles CPU-bound engines. Gamma or Delta adds thousands of GPU cores for simulations, model work, and parallel calculations.

Prop, Quant & Team Workloads

Delta provides the full physical server for large local datasets, parallel research, multiple platform instances, HFT automation, and firm-level operations.

Data Center

Chicago, Near CME

Typical 0-1ms latency from our Chicago infrastructure to CME, with exchange-adjacent placement and routes built for market data, orders, and Remote Desktop.

Chicago Routing

CME-bound traffic can use blended Tier-1 carriers, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and redundant paths. If one carrier has trouble, another route can keep market data, order traffic, and Remote Desktop moving.

Ryzen CPU

Dedicated Ryzen 9 9950X Cores

Built for the market open, large data backfills, replay, indicators, and long optimization runs.

CPU-Driven Futures Work

Top Alpha configurations rank in the top 1% on PassMark. Ryzen 9 9950X cores take on platform logic, charts, indicators, automation, replay, backtesting, and optimization.

NVMe SSD

Fast Load Storage

Gen4/Gen5 NVMe keeps chart history, market replay files, local datasets, and backtest output moving without storage becoming the next bottleneck.

Faster Charts And Historical Runs

Fast local reads shorten chart loads, backfills, replay preparation, and access to historical datasets. Fast writes keep backtest results and platform data moving during longer runs.

DDR5 RAM

DDR5 Speed. ECC Stability.

Higher memory bandwidth supports dense chart workspaces, multiple platforms, and larger datasets. ECC detects and corrects memory errors during long sessions.

Memory Built For Long Sessions

DDR5 moves more data than DDR4 for platform multitasking and historical work. ECC memory detects and corrects bit errors before they can disrupt a long-running platform or calculation.

Support

Trading-Fluent Human Support

Engineers are available 24/7 and know NinjaTrader, TradeStation, Sierra Chart, Bookmap, Windows, and networking. Platform help and remote hands are part of the managed service.

Platform Help, Included

Reach a human by chat, phone, email, or helpdesk. The team can work through platform processes, Windows, Remote Desktop, network behavior, and server configuration with you at no extra cost.

Network

Managed Protection & Recovery

Layer 3/4/7 DDoS protection, ServerIQ monitoring, and encrypted off-server daily snapshots are included with every plan. Full-system recovery target: under 2 hours.

Protection Around The Workspace

DDoS filtering blocks attack traffic at the network. ServerIQ sends email alerts in under 5 seconds when a monitored process stops. Daily off-server snapshots provide a full-system recovery path.

The Infrastructure Between ChartVPS And CME

Chicago Routing, Not Just Chicago Hosting

Multiple Tier-1 carriers, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), and redundant paths give market data, orders, and Remote Desktop another route when a carrier has trouble. Typical Chicago-to-CME latency is 0-1ms.

99.99% Measured Uptime + 100% SLA

We publish measured uptime and back the service commitment with credits. Futures infrastructure should be judged by what stayed online, not only by the number in the guarantee.

SOC 2 Type I, Layered Security

Biometric facility controls protect the hardware. Encrypted Remote Desktop, hardware and software firewalls, and Layer 3/4/7 DDoS filtering protect the server and network path.

Put Your Futures Setup Closer To CME

Choose Chicago for typical 0-1ms latency to CME. Choose Alpha, Gamma, or Delta based on the platform, charting, automation, and account count. Management is included, prices are visible, and new subscriptions carry a minimum 3-year price lock.
