Post subject:  Empty4 installation - changing brokers

I'm using Cowboy IBFX Australia Empty4 demo for charting/analysis only, my actual trading account is with Interactive Brokers. Looks like Cowboy IBFX is about to shut down Empty4 so I need a new Empty4 demo with a different broker, looking at Global Prime.

Can someone give some tips on the easiest way to get up and running with the new demo Empty4. I know I can install Global Prime demo in a different directory and configure the way I want, but all my charts/indicators etc. are set up nicely, and I'd rather not have to re-install and reconfgure. Can I just download Global Prime's demo Empty4, extract terminal.exe and replace the Cowboy IBFX terminal.exe with the Global Prime terminal.exe.

HI,

Their Empty4 demo is still running,when are they going to shut down?
Only need copy the new(global prime) whole config folder files into your old Empty4 config folder.

Why not use the Portable mode?

The terminal can also be launched in the so-called Portable mode (as in previous Empty4 4 builds). In that mode, the data is stored and recorded in the installation folder. To do this, use "/portable" key. For more convenience, you can create an additional terminal launch shortcut with the appropriate name on your desktop and add the key directly to the shortcut:

Cheers :)
