What gets the best CPU performance when using multiple indicators and EAs on a price chart.........
1. Each individual Price Chart gets its very own instance of MT4 ....so you have MULTIPLE MT4 installs running on your computer ...like EUR/USD gets its very own MT4....then another MT4 install runs only GBP/USD.......and those price charts have many indicators and EAs running ...
OR ,
2. Having an MT4 install running MULTIPLE price charts with indicators and EAs.....usually task manager shows this uses about 20-30% of CPU.....
I know its obviously better to run multiple versions of MT4 because at some point too many indicators and EAs will bog down MT4 since its an older program .
But at what point do you start using multiple versions of MT4 and is the extreme case of having a dedicated install of MT4 for each price chart the way to get the MOST out of your CPU ????
I can have like 20 instances of MT4 running . each with a dedicated price chart , or have like 4 or 5 MT4 running with like 5 price charts each ......
Or does it all amount to the same CPU usage in the end ??
