When you talk about Bottles is this a function of Crossover or Wine? Or is it referring to the app "Bottles" that is built on Wine? I've been trying to read what you meant by this.

By bottle I meant the unique directory that keeps all your files for a wine instance, its your WINEPREFIX or it can be called a "bottle", by default its ~/.wine
Also to clarify, Crossover is actually a patched wine with a nice gui, so there is no distinguish there.


I did run in to one possible problem in that the MT4 is 32-bit and my custom studies are in 64-bit. Not sure if that's going to be a snag or not. I can just get my studies recompiled in 32 Bit if so.

By default wine now creates a 64-bit WINEPREFIX so this allow you to run both 32 and 64 bit apps. No need to recompile your studies.

If for any reason though you need to recompile you can check my video for help into setting up a sierra chart dev environment under linux https://youtu.be/UC69ex3kqcc
