Multi use of MT5 clients

 

Hello community!

I'd like to inquire if there is anyone who uses MT5 clients across multiple instances?

My setup involves four UltraHD monitors, each with a resolution of 3840 x 2160. I intend to display approximately 80 overview charts on one monitor, resulting in four MT5 clients connected to a single PC, showcasing a total of 320 charts. (a lot of instruments are played repeatedly over various time frames).

Is this concept feasible? What would be the limitations from a PC standpoint? Would it be better to use a standard desktop CPU or one designed for servers?

The objective is to achieve real-time visualization of a diverse range of instruments across multiple asset classes, such as FX pairs, US indices, oil, and metals, to provide an instantaneous global market overview.

Thanks a lot!

a normal computer can handle that, easy, so long as it has the number of display connections that you want.

The issue you may have is your internet access. normal, residential home, ISPs, never have a great internet access or reliable connection to the brokers. Even if your speedtest says your have ping of 20ms, that is only at that very moment and only when doing that same website and connection again. the ping and jitter, on home computers is ALWAYS changing with every connection.

If you are doing manual trading, you may not have a choice to use a vps, otherwise trading with bots and on that many charts and terminals can only be done on a vps.

If your only goal is to show that many charts on your multiple screens, then, I still suggest a vps that can be setup with multiple terminals at same time.

 
in a  normal computer your problem will be the video cards, at most you can run 6 monitors at once, with some high end video cards. I once built a system with 28 monitors running on a Bitcoin mining computer, given that those computers are designed for GPUs. But with the 28 monitors, the computer was super slow. A thing I managed to do was a single large tv with many subdivisions, each running an independent graph... that worked well. I can say it looked nice.
