Question: How do I run multiple MT4 platforms so I can test out various different settings of my EA?

I have a lot of ideas and would like to play around with the settings before going Live. But how do I do it with just one platform?

Put it on different charts and give each instance its own individual magic number. Of course, the code will need to be able to only work with trades with a particular magic number.

Is there any other way? Cause I have open all pairs to test the EA with?

Say I have open 24 charts of different pairs right now, for me to open another 24 would be a little over the top don't you think?

copy the entire mt4-directory and run mt4 in portable mode.
so you can open the 2 platforms ...
PM me with coding requests and I'll probably put you on my ignore list
