How to run multiple MT4/MT5 platforms on PC/Mobile at the same time?

You can certainly run several MetaTrader4 in one device at the same time, by downloading MT4 in different names.

In case of a mobile phone, you need to install MT4 applications provided by several different brokers, then run them all on your mobile.

How to Install several MT4 programs

MetaTrader4 itself doesn’t have a function of accessing more than two accounts at the same time, as in you can only access to one trading account per MetaTrader4 but no more than that.

If you wish to have several MT4 accounts opened at the same time in the same computer, you need to have several MetaTrader4 downloaded for the number of accounts.

Although if you try to download MT4 when you already have a MT4, the program data will simply re-write on it and you will still have only one MT4 at the end.

In order to download more than two MT4 in the same device, you need to change the name of the program or the folder where you save the data, so you will have two MT4 in your device as a result.

After downloading several MT4, you just need to open them all and login to your different MT4 account separately. Then you can manage several MT4 accounts simultaneously.

Please note that MetaTrader4 isn’t very light program, but it sometimes heavily consumes RAM Memory especially when you use more Custom Indicators and Expert Advisers running.

Running several MetaTrader4 might even delay the price feeds and execution speeds.

If you feel your MT4 is running slower than usual, then you may close extra charts and MT4, and disable extra indicators and expert advisers.
