How do I open a chart in MT4?

You can open a chart within the platform in two ways:

  • Go to the ‘Market Watch’ window and right-click on the desired symbol. In the drop-down menu, select ‘Chart Window.’
  • Click the ‘+’ button ( ) on the main toolbar then select the desired symbols from the dropdown menu.

Saving my chart settings

There are three ways to save chart settings.

  1. Set up the chart to your requirements. Next, right-click on the chart, select ‘Template’ then ‘Save Template,’ and give your chart a name. To apply this template, right-click on the chart you want to reconfigure then select the chart template you saved above.
  2. Alternatively, select the chart you want to save, go to 'Charts' in the main toolbar, then go down to 'Template' and 'Save Template'.
  3. Another option is to click on the ‘Template’ icon in the main toolbar. The Template icon is the one with graphics on it.
