Click a shortcut. Each one opens its own terminal, side by side.

Several accounts, one terminal at a time.

A live account, a demo, a prop account, a second broker. That usually means logging in and out of one terminal, or copying terminal folders by hand.

One login at a time.Each terminal is connected to one account.
Charts and EAs are shared.Switching accounts takes your charts and EAs with it.
Copying by hand is fiddly.Portable mode needs the right folder and the right switch every time.

How it works

Each copy is a portable copy of the terminal folder. Your original install stays as it is.

  1. 01

    Pick the terminal

    Choose which installed MT4 or MT5 to copy. Any broker's build works.

  2. 02

    DeskTwin makes a portable copy

    It copies the terminal folder and starts it with MetaQuotes' official /portable switch, so the copy keeps its data in its own folder.

  3. 03

    Log in and trade

    Each copy has its own login, charts, EAs and settings, and a numbered shortcut. Each copy keeps updating itself through MetaQuotes LiveUpdate.

Questions

How much disk space does each copy take?

Each copy is a full portable copy of the terminal folder, so it takes about as much as a normal install: about 350 MB for MT5.

Do the copies update themselves?

Yes. Each copy keeps updating itself through MetaQuotes LiveUpdate, like a normal terminal.

Does it work with my broker?

It works with any broker's MT4 or MT5 build. You pick which installed terminal to copy.

Can EAs run in several copies at once?

Yes. Each copy runs on its own, with its own EAs, charts and settings.

Does it change my main MetaTrader?

No. DeskTwin copies the terminal folder. Your original install, its login and its data stay as they are.

What does /portable do?

It is MetaQuotes' own switch. It tells the terminal to keep its data in its own folder instead of the shared one under AppData, so copies do not mix.

Can I move my key to a new PC?

Yes. Open DeskTwin on the old PC and click "Remove from this PC". Then enter the key on the new PC.
