Hi, in this topic, I will share with you how I manage many terminals, if you want to start your journey with algo trading, it could be a good starting point
- Each terminal in a separate folder, like each program, and therefore the trading terminal, must be installed in a separate folder for proper operation. It’s best to use the portable version, it increases your mobility if you change the server.
- Turn off system updates, system updates may lead to an uncontrolled restart, which may affect the operation of EA’s.
- Add a terminal shortcut to autostart, in case of an uncontrolled restart the terminals should start automatically along with the system.
- Install a maximum of 15 strategies per terminal, trading terminals have a limited number of sending channels, if you see the message “trade context is busy” in the journal tab, it’s time to transfer part of the strategy to the new terminal.
- hide quotes you don’t use
minimize charts and terminals.
Do not add indicators to the chart
the above actions reduce the consumption of your server’s resources - Number the terminals, when using multiple terminals you will have many identical icons on the taskbar. To speed up terminal identification, you can easily change the broker’s logo to a number.
Hope it will help you
