Hi, The ARM version of Sierra Chart runs on Windows ARM. Therefore, you still need to use a tool like Parallels (which I recommend). Once configured, Parallels uses about 50% of your Mac’s resources, so plan for twice what you think you’ll need. If you want 32 GB of RAM available for Sierra Chart, get a Mac with 64 GB. The same logic applies to the processor, storage space, and so on. I’m running Sierra Chart on a MacBook Air M4 with 32 GB of RAM, which means only 16 GB are allocated to Sierra Chart through Parallels — and it works perfectly fine as long as I don’t have 20 charts open at once. The only downside with Macs — and I hope they’ll fix this in future versions (one can dream) — is that the read/write speed of the SSD they use is relatively slow. As a result, you’ll need to be patient when loading charts with a lot of historical data. Have a great day. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2025-10-31 14:32:10
