I have never tried so I can't say for 100% certain but in my opinion yes it should run . . .  just don't expect it to be fast or to be able to open many charts each with their own EA . . .  and forget trying to use the Strategy Tester for anything other than the most simple EAs.

As always,  it's your money so DYOR

Some blogs say"the WINDOWS RT(ARM) versions can not open .exe files as it doesn't support legacy"(some tablets have win-RT,some have windows-7/8 and so,,i'm having hard times detecting the OS)

Is the tablet that i stated above,having the WINDOWS RT(ARM) OR the DESKTOP version of WIN-7 32 bit?(i think win7 32bit will run all the programs like the desktop version)


I'm not that much of a tech-guy to understand terms like : ARM/LEGACY etc......my intention is to monitor my trades on the go,,not to perform heavy backtesting,,(the only thing i use to run is a RENKO offline EA on 1/2 pairs)..

Hope to hear more from u..Sir..........

If your are sure of th specs you publish above, then there is no problem. This is not an arm and the OS is Windows 7 32bits. So no problem to run MT4.

But there are many configurations for this serie Acer Iconia Tab, so check out the features before buying.

Why would you expect a ARM CPU, which does not have an x85 instruction set, to run code compiled for x86 CPUs ? 

Your post above say that the OS is:  Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 32-bit •
