When seriously optimizing EAs (Expert Advisors) on MT5 (MetaTrader5), a high-spec machine with 32 to 64 cores is required for several hours to several days. However, if such a machine is operated continuously, the monthly cost exceeds 370,000 yen for Windows cloud and 210,000 yen for Linux cloud. On the other hand, high-load processing is actually performed only for a few days a month—this 'mismatch between usage frequency and pricing structure' has been a long-standing structural issue for domestic EA developers.
Bestnet LLC (Headquarters: Osaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, Representative Employee: Hideyuki Chinda) has launched 'OptiMax,' a specialized VPS service for MT5 EA optimization, as of April 28, 2026. This service adopts a new pricing model: a monthly base environment + a ticket-based Boost system.

■ Background: Structural Challenges Faced by Domestic EA Developers
In the domestic FX/MT4/MT5 specialized VPS market, approximately 12vCPU / 64GB RAM was virtually the industry's highest spec (※1). Therefore, developers who wanted to perform large-scale optimizations, such as scanning thousands to tens of thousands of parameters with MT5's Strategy Tester, had no choice but to resort to the following options:
・Domestic and international public clouds: Always-on pricing model, resulting in fixed costs even if used only a few days a month.
・MQL5 Distributed Computing (Cloud Network): Difficult to predict costs due to pay-as-you-go billing. In addition, there are many restrictions for development purposes, such as DLL call limitations and RAM/disk limitations per pass.
Bestnet's continuous analysis of its own FX specialized VPS users' usage patterns revealed that the majority had a need to 'maintain a development environment continuously, but only need heavy optimization a few days a month.' OptiMax was designed in reverse from this reality. OptiMax's base environment, 'EA DevBox,' offers 16vCPU / 64GB RAM and NVMe 500GB, which can be expanded up to 64vCPU / 256GB RAM during Boost. The base environment itself already surpasses the conventional highest specs of domestic FX specialized VPS.
■ What is OptiMax?
It is a service where you can maintain your development environment, EAs, historical data, and settings with the monthly fixed 'EA DevBox' (16vCPU / 64GB RAM / NVMe 500GB, 12,800 yen/month), and only add 'Optimizer Boost' on a ticket basis for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days when heavy optimization is required.
After the Boost period ends, it automatically reverts to the DevBox configuration, preventing unexpected charges due to forgotten shutdowns. The cost is only 'monthly fee + purchased ticket price,' which can be fully understood in advance.
According to our research, the pricing model of a monthly base environment + ticket-based Boost system is a new pricing structure unprecedented in domestic FX specialized VPS services (※2).
■ Pricing Plans and Configuration
【EA DevBox (Base Environment)】12,800 yen/month
・16 vCPU / 64GB RAM / NVMe 500GB
・Continuous development possible while retaining EAs, historical data, and settings.
【Optimizer Boost (3 grades × 3 durations)】
▼ Boost L (32 vCPU / 128GB RAM / NVMe 500GB)
24 hours: 4,900 yen / 7 days: 19,800 yen / 30 days: 29,800 yen
▼ Boost XL (44 vCPU / 160GB RAM / NVMe 500GB) *Recommended
24 hours: 7,900 yen / 7 days: 29,800 yen / 30 days: 44,800 yen
▼ Boost XXL (64 vCPU / 256GB RAM / NVMe 500GB)
24 hours: 12,800 yen / 7 days: 49,800 yen / 30 days: 69,800 yen

■ Price Competitiveness Compared to Market Prices for Equivalent Specs
Our survey conducted in April 2026 shows the following monthly market rates for continuously operating VPS/cloud services with 32-64 vCPU / 128-256GB RAM (※3):
・Domestic VPS (high-spec range): Approximately 80,000 to 280,000 yen/month
・Overseas VPS (equivalent spec range): Approximately 100,000 to 350,000 yen/month
・Major Public Clouds (Linux): Approximately 190,000 to 450,000 yen/month
・Major Public Clouds (Windows): Approximately 350,000 to 770,000 yen/month
In contrast, OptiMax's monthly cost for 'using Boost XL (44 vCPU / 160GB) for only 3 days a month' would be 12,800 yen (EA DevBox monthly fee) + 7,900 yen (Boost XL 24-hour ticket) × 3 = 36,500 yen.
