Multicharts - License Transfer possible ?

syswizard · Mar 17, 2021

Someone wants to sell me their license to Multicharts but I believe Multicharts has a strict policy against this and if I attempt to install the purchased, used license, it will throw an error and prevent the installation on my workstation.
Any feedback greatly appreciated.

You just have to pretend to be the person who is the licensee when asking for support.

Thanks for that, but I've got to think about this more.
When I terminate the 3 month license, my email address could get "flagged" on this forum.
They may be running reports showing all forum id's without a current license.
So I need a new forum presence as well. Or do I have to use his current forum userid and email address ?
This is getting a bit complicated now.

Hope you don't plan on doing any live trading using an unlicensed version of MultiCharts. Would be quite unfortunate encountering an issue with the software while trading live money and then being denied support because they learn you do not have a valid license. Don't be penny wise and pound foolish.

Thanks guys....I've come to that conclusion. Gotta pay up.
