Using multiple systems on one chart

Beginner Questions
1

Hi -

Not an expert at Metatrader platform and I am using several systems at the same time, some with several variables. It gets old quick removing indicators from the charts and then putting new ones, even using hot keys.

Is there a way for me to associate a particular system, including all its variables, with a particular key combination? This is so that I may delete one system and quickly put another on so that I may see potential entry points.

If not, what’s the best way to do this?

Wish you all successful trading.

Two quick ways I can think of right now:

  1. Templates. You can add all your indicators at once.

  2. Multiple charts of the same pair. So you can click on the EU tab with this system of indicators and then click on the other EU tab with that system of indicators.

3

Try setting each system up on a chart, then saving the template?

Right-click, Template, Save

Then do another…

Or, you can just open how many ever charts you need…

Also, If your looking at the EU for instance, you can select AU or what-ever pair, and drag it onto the chart, to get the same system, but now looking at AU pair…

Im not really sure what your asking, but this is what I can come up with pertaining to your logic.

Thank you all, I think that’s the answer.

How can I speedily delete everything on a chart at once so that I may install templates?

Cheers

Will second the last post and if you still have questions regarding MT4/5, feel free to post it …

I’ve tried but that does not work?
You mean, just tap backspace?

Probably easiest to close the chart and then re-open it fresh.

You don’t need to delete anything before you use another template.

Just select the new template, and it will clear everything on the chart prior to installing.

That won’t work if he hasn’t saved his new template yet…apparently his chart is loaded with multi-system indicators that he needs to remove in order to create a template for each of his systems.

Here’s a Youtube video on templates & profiles…

Or just delete the chart, put up a new one and then apply the template.

If you’re using different systems on a single pair, you can open 2 charts and put them side-by-side. Just click the Windows tab then Tile horizontally/vertically.
