I've gone through the past 30+ pages in this thread and can't find anything relating to a question I have, which seems like it should be pretty common:

Can I use Butter Bot on multiple exchanges simultaneously from the same machine with the same license? I only have one desktop PC that I trust to run Butter Bot, but quickly I discovered that if I open two Chrome windows, the bot settings will duplicate between the two, which makes it seem like I can only trade on one exchange.

Would there be any way to set up separate instances without resorting to the installation of a virtual machine? I'd like to be able to trade a few exchanges (ie. BTC-E, Gox, Bitstamp) at the same time to decrease my risk in the form of one of these places rolling up overnight or being "hacked".

I don't do so myself, but I believe you can do what you're aiming to do. There's even a new feature of the bot to allow you to override the global settings and set per exchange settings for the bot now. I haven't seen much talk about doing multiple exchanges at once on the forums, but I assume it's been done.

Awesome, thanks for the response. I had noticed the "override global settings" box, but didn't select it because I had no idea what kind of effect it would have. But once I tried just now, it brought up another unique engine configuration, so all looks good.
