Incompatibility with Linux systems #38

One of the core dependency, MetaTrader5 is only available to Windows but not Linux. This causes the gym-mtsim to be unable to run on Linux machines.

Yes that's right. At the time I started this project, they promised to make MetaTrader5 compatible with Linux and macOS. But they haven't published anything yet. I created a branch in this repo to support Linux and macOS. However, it's not updated. I will update this branch soon and release a new version.

Please install the latest version (v1.3.0). The repo can now be installed on Linux and macOS. Note that the download_data method only works on Windows.
