 Is there a limit to the number of MetaTrader terminals that can be run?
Solution There is no hard number we can give in regards to the number of MT4 terminals that can run in a virtual desktop. That is, we do not set a hard limit to the number of MT4 terminals that can be run at any one time. It's dependent on the resources in your subscription, namely CPU and especially RAM. Each EA is it's own computer program and will demand it's own unique amount of resources.

You can get a baseline of the RAM needed for a specific EA by running it and looking at the RAM usage of the 'terminal.exe' process in the task manager.
