Hello everyone,

I've some questions around trading multiple strategies. There are some answers in the manual and the forums, but I was hoping to get some specific answers and opinions about the best way to proceed.

I'm using Zorro S and would like to trade three of the Z Strategies, as well as my own strategies in the future.

My broker is Think Forex in Australia. They offer two APIs (MT4 PHP, and MT4 FIX). My knowledge of what these represent is very limited (my programming background is almost nil), but my understanding is that they provide an interface that enable you to access their servers for the purpose of trading.

I am considering setting up a VPS so that Zorro can run with minimal downtime.

What is the best way to run multiple strategies using the same broker? Do I need multiple accounts with this broker (one for each strategy)? Or can I run multiple strategies on the one account? Also, do I need multiple installations of Zorro (one for each strategy)?

Is it recommended to use the MT4 bridge, running Zorro as an EA in MT4, or is it better to connect Zorro via the broker's API? If the latter, what is the difference between the FIX and PHP APIs?

Apologies for the beginner questions. I am new to strategy development and automated trading in general.
