Shared IP trading proxy with one steady datacenter address
The short answer
Traders Proxy provides a shared IP trading proxy where your broker sees one steady datacenter address in their host city. That address remains consistent across connections and helps prevent location flags when switching networks. Review your broker policy before connecting because routing addresses are shared.
One steady server address across networks
Your broker sees our server address in that metro, shared across active accounts on that server. It changes only when you switch your broker city or when we replace a hardware server.
While your broker city remains unchanged, the visible address stays identical across sessions and networks. Moving from home broadband to a mobile hotspot does not reveal a new location.
Any trading platform with a proxy setting can connect through Traders Proxy. MetaTrader 4 (MT4), MetaTrader 5 (MT5), TradingView Desktop and Optuma are common examples. Each platform maker chooses which network requests route through that proxy setting.
How shared routing allocates network resources
This table details what is shared at the datacenter level and what stays strictly private on your computer.
When you need an address only you use
Every plan routes through our shared server address. If your broker or trading firm requires an address only you use, Traders Proxy is the wrong tool.
Specific circumstances where your routing address changes
Your broker may observe a new connection address under these three conditions.
- You choose a new broker city inside your dashboard from our server cities. Your broker then observes connections originating from that new metro server.
- We replace an existing server node.
- Our server in your broker city becomes unreachable. Your terminal displays a connection error, and your dashboard requests approval before rerouting to an alternative city.
We never reroute your connection to another city without explicit permission. Changing your broker city preserves your four setup values. Your terminal connects to the new city upon its next reconnect.
Confirming broker and trading firm rules
Warning. Check your own terms first
Brokers and trading firms set their own rules on proxies and shared addresses. If yours restricts either, don’t use Traders Proxy on that account.
Assume your broker detects datacenter routing because connection requests arrive from our server address. Traders Proxy does not alter what your broker permits.
Firm restrictions concerning physical location still apply regardless of our server location. Different institutions phrase these policies differently. Read two firms’ published rules for examples.
Safe testing on a demo account
Select your broker city in your dashboard and connect a demo account first. This lets you observe execution stability before capital is on the line. Compare speeds with and without our route using our connection check.
If execution times look identical, you do not need the service. Request a refund within the refund window, or stop renewal anytime from your dashboard.
Fast activation and straightforward risk reversal
- Pay. Select a plan and complete checkout via Stripe or crypto. We never see your card number. The confirmation page provides your one-time link to set your dashboard password.
- Set up. In your dashboard, select your broker city. Copy the four connection values into your desktop terminal on a demo account.
- Test. Evaluate live route stability on your demo terminal. If your platform can’t connect through us and support can’t fix it, we refund your first payment within 7 days on a monthly plan, or 14 days on a yearly plan or Founder 50. This doesn’t affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. Read how refunds work.
- Leave anytime. Cancel renewal in your dashboard. Access remains active through the remainder of your paid billing period.
Every plan starts at once. Compare the plans and pick the number of devices you need.
Frequently asked questions
Do I get my own IP address?
No. Our server address is shared across accounts in that location and is never private. Every plan uses this shared model.
Can another customer on the address affect me?
Brokers treat incoming server addresses independently according to their own risk systems. While sockets remain completely isolated on our server, your broker policy dictates how traffic from shared datacenter IPs is received.
Does a shared address mean a shared connection?
No. While accounts share the external server IP, each terminal connection opens an isolated network socket to your broker. Data packets never cross between customer sessions.
Does sharing a server slow my orders?
We promise no guaranteed speed improvement and publish no synthetic claims. Your dashboard shows live server load so you can verify performance on your own platform during active trading hours.

Shared server address where a broker block affects every account on that server
“There are some vps providers that are actively blocked due to suspicious activies happening by the providers in past.”
Why a proxy can backfire here. Your broker sees one steady address, our server’s, shared by people on a Traders Proxy plan in that city.
- One steady addressBoundary
- City switchingSupporting
Where it stops. Our server address is shared by people on a Traders Proxy plan in that city. Switch city in your dashboard if a broker blocks that address.
Broker and firm rules on proxies, VPNs and shared addresses
“Of 55 prop firms we audited (forex and futures), 0 allow shared ip / vpn, 5 allow it with conditions and 50 prohibit it.”
Why a proxy can backfire here. Your broker sees our server’s steady address in the city you pick. Check your broker’s or firm’s rules before connecting.
Where it stops. Check your broker’s or firm’s rules before using a proxy. If your broker prohibits proxies or shared addresses, do not use one.
Long-distance delay and undersea cable faults between regions
“Find a broker that uses cloudflare. I use VPN but from Europe. First traded with Generic Trader and ping was 200-300ms. then I changed to Ninjatrader and now my ping is 15-45ms depending on which serverlocation I use as VPN.”
Why a proxy does not change this. No claim. We don't shorten the distance between you and your broker's city, and we don't promise lower ping.
Where it stops. If your route to your broker’s city is long or damaged, our server cannot repair that cable fault and adds a step along the way.
Login, install and Authorization failed errors that look like a network block
“i have a problem installing both mt4 or mt5 it asks for a proxy server right away don't even let me have an installation folder”
Why a proxy does not change this. No claim. Login and install errors are usually on your own computer or in the login you used, not on the network.
Where it stops. Our setup guide separates the broker login from the MQL5 Community login. Authorization failed is usually a login or server-name mismatch.
