Is it possible to configure the location of the three directories (with subdirectories) where working files can be placed? I'd like to configure one of them on a ramdisk so that it can communicate with other programs through files without actual writing on harddisk. Also how to retrieve the names of all exisitng files under a directory?

You can put it on RamDisk.

I have my History folder on RamDisk due to some performance issues


How to:

Create RamDisk.

Copy C:\Program File\MetaTrader\..\someFolder to RamDisk.

delete/rename original directory at C:\Program File\MetaTrader\..\someFolder

Create an NTFS junction ( like posix symbolic link ) from the Ramdisk folder to the metatrader directory tree in each MT4 installation.

Create the link for the FOLDER not for the files.

done.
