Operating system
- Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit) — primary supported platform for the desktop app
- Administrator rights may be required for the first install
- Stable internet for sign-in, marketplace downloads, and OpenRouter (if used)
Hardware
| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | 4 cores | 8+ cores for multiple agents + Ollama |
| RAM | 8 GB | 16 GB+ if running local LLMs |
| Disk | 2 GB free for app + agents | SSD with space for models (Ollama) |
| Display | 1280×720 | 1920×1080 for charts and agent UIs |
Required software
- MetaTrader 5 terminal from your broker (64-bit)
- Locimens desktop app (latest release from locimens.com)
- A Locimens account with an active plan for the features you need
Optional but common
- Ollama — fully local LLM inference (no cloud API key)
- OpenRouter account — cloud models with your own API key
- Telegram — for mobile monitoring via your personal bot
Same machine rule
MT5 and Locimens must run on the same Windows PC. The Python MT5 integration connects to the terminal installed locally — not a remote VPS unless you run the full stack there.
