Technical Requirements
Get your trading setup ready for professional algorithmic strategies. Here's everything you need to know about hardware, software, and network requirements for optimal performance.
Hardware That Powers Success
After working with hundreds of traders in Vietnam and across Southeast Asia, we've seen what works and what doesn't. Your computer doesn't need to be cutting-edge, but it does need to handle multiple data streams, execute trades quickly, and run analysis tools without hiccups.
Most importantly, your system should remain stable during market hours. We've all heard stories about missed opportunities because someone's laptop froze at the worst possible moment.
Processor & Memory
Recommended: Intel i7 or AMD Ryzen 7 with 16GB RAM
Real-time market data processing requires consistent performance. We've found that newer processors handle multiple trading platforms much better than older high-end chips.
Storage & Speed
Recommended: 512GB SSD or larger
Traditional hard drives simply can't keep up with modern trading software. The difference in boot time and application responsiveness is dramatic with SSD storage.
Internet Connection
Recommended: 50+ Mbps with backup connection
Latency matters more than raw speed for trading. Fiber connections in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi typically provide the best stability for algorithmic trading.
Operating System
Recommended: Windows 11 Pro
Most trading platforms work best on Windows. Mac users can run everything smoothly, while Linux requires more technical setup but offers excellent performance.
