How do I run more than 32 instances of Mt4 on one machine?

 
I have a very beefy machine for back testing purposes, and I can only open 32 instances of MetaTrade4 on it even though I have resources for it to handle many more. How can I open more than 32 Mt4 Terminals at once?

The real question is why do you need 32 terminals when each one can support at least 30 symbols. Your broker doesn't have that many symbols.

Thanks for the thread Drazen.
 
We can install more than 32 terminals on a platform but only open upto 32 terminals in a single time ?
Am i right ?
I am a bit confused about how many we can install and how many we can open in the same time
Please suggest
Thank you
 

Simple under Windows, you can run 32 MT4 instances per user!

So create as many users you need and your instances will run in the background. (Tested, 3 users so far)

Like, opening multiple terminals when they don't know a terminal can have multiple charts.

"... when they don't know a terminal can have multiple charts"

Amazing, after the first installing the default template opens 4 charts. And what to do if you want to subscribe/test 50 free signals together? (Despite I recon it's a waste of time)

Charts and Signals are two separate issues. You can follow a signal without having any charts open. However, you can only follow one signal per trading account.
