Multicharts consumes a lot of RAM during simulation and during live trading because of data downloading (this occurs mostly using data2/data3 data).
To avoid this, for live trading one way would be storing Data into HD instead of RAM, downloading only a little portion of real time data into the RAM.
For simulation can be enough just downloading and merging the portion of missing data during every simulation.
There's any way to do it ?

Are you referring to 50/60 symbols? or 50/60 data streams?- yes

- 200 lines average..
Thank you

if each symbol has 3 data series, that's 180 datastreams of 1 minute data.
