I am an Apple Macintosh user and want to use Green Charts. One option for running Windows-based software (such as the charts) is to use the Mac app called "Crossover." As I understand, Crossover creates a box in the Mac screen, within which Windows runs.

If Green Charts will run using Crossover, I could see the charts in the Crossover box, while using the broker's website on my Mac and making trades. This sounds good, but I don't know for certain that Green Charts will run in Crossover. Do you?

thx,

Dan Carpenter

We have heard that this works, but if there any technical problems we cannot help with those. We do not think this is a good technical solution. It inherently is going to have reliability problems.

You instead need to use a solution where you can install Windows on your Mac and run Sierra Chart directly on Windows.

No. It uses WINE https://www.winehq.org/
Don't waste the time with it.
