Wonder how many ms were you getting on Cloud&Metal and Kamadera? Thanks
Have you checked out Zongoolio? They offer really competitive VPS hosting with a focus on low latency, and I've heard great things about their connections to local data centers. I've been using them for a while and consistently see latency around that 5-10ms mark you’re looking for. Plus, their pricing is hard to beat! It might be worth giving them a shot alongside your other options.
bros tryna get real close to IBKR CBOT (I am too)
Even if you are nextdoor to a datacenter there's no guarantee of Single-hop routes to the VPS provider. Their exchange points can vary and routes can change over time. If you're getting 15-20ms on average, that's likely about as good as you're going to get.
Take a look at Google and Cloudflare IPs and do a traceroute or mtr to to them. They are globally distributed and have really good routing and you'll likely see 15-30ms. The reason why I say this is, if Google and Cloudflare have equal or higher latency you're probably better off sticking with what you have.
5-10ms latency over vps isn't super-realistic due to many factors along the wire. When I was in that area Cloudfanatic had the lowest latency.
GreenCloud has VPS in Chicago.
Datawagon, racknerd, colocrossing that's the ones i got right now in my mind - I'll update/post more later if I know more.
