Data usage of charts vs market watch

New comment
 

Hello!

For mt4, when a symbol is in the market watch window, it is updating bid and ask live, therefor, consuming internet bandwidth.

While a trade is opened for that symbol, we cannot remove the symbol from the market watch window.

So, as long as the trade is opened and mt4 opened and connected to account, bandwidth will be used for the symbol.

My question is, does it make a difference in bandwidth if I also keep the symbol's chart opened?


Thanks!!

 
I doubt there is any difference.
 

Hard to tell huh!

I guess I'm gonna have to test with a network monitoring tool... :(


Thanks William for taking the time!
