Why dedicated
Nothing shared, nothing to worry about
Isolated by design
Your own EC2 instance, database, and cache - no other customer's traffic, load, or incident ever touches your node.
Full lifecycle control
Stop, start, or terminate your node from the dashboard whenever you need to - nothing requires a support ticket.
Managed for you
Health checks, background workers, and application updates are handled automatically - you don't operate the infrastructure yourself.

FAQ
Questions people actually ask
Still deciding? The setup guide covers every step, and support can answer the rest.
Dedicated Trading Node (Light) is $499/month. It normally also carries a one-time $500 setup fee (covering your dedicated AWS compute, database, subdomain, and SSL provisioning), but that's waived right now as part of our early access offer - there's no separate hosting bill either way.
It's normally a one-time charge covering provisioning your dedicated infrastructure (instance, database, subdomain, and SSL certificate) - but it's currently waived for everyone as part of our early access offer, applied automatically at checkout.
Hosting is fully included. Your node runs on AWS infrastructure that OHLCX owns and manages - you don't need an AWS account, and you don't manage servers, backups, or updates yourself.
No. Provisioning, monitoring, and lifecycle management (start, stop, terminate) all happen from your dashboard with a click. If something needs attention, our monitoring catches it before you would.
Yes, you can cancel your subscription from your dashboard at any time. Your node stays available through the end of your current billing period.
Your node and its data are retained for a grace period after cancellation in case you resubscribe, then permanently deleted. Contact support before cancelling if you need an export.
No. OHLCX provides execution and order-management technology only. We are not a registered broker-dealer or investment adviser, and your node connects to your own brokerage account via the Schwab API - we never custody your funds or securities.
A Dedicated Node gives you your own isolated AWS instance, database, and subdomain - no other customer's traffic or load ever touches it. It runs the same OHLCX Light application.
A typical trading VPS is raw compute - you configure it yourself to run your own bot or expert advisor (MT4, MT5, NinjaTrader), usually for forex or futures. A Dedicated Trading Node is different: it arrives with a complete trading application already installed - dashboard, order management, and Schwab connectivity - so there's no bot to write, install, or maintain.
Platforms built around writing and deploying your own strategy code typically run on shared, multi-tenant infrastructure - your code runs alongside other users' on the same servers. A Dedicated Trading Node is a genuinely isolated AWS instance, database, and subdomain, running a point-and-click dashboard with built-in Trim, OCO, OTOCO, and trailing-stop exit tools connected to your own Schwab account. No strategy code required, and nothing about your infrastructure is shared.
The full OHLCX Light platform, on infrastructure only you can touch
$499/mo, fully managed - your own AWS instance, database, and subdomain, connected to your Charles Schwab account.
