Hello,

I have a issue on MT4, when i draw a horizontal lines/trend line/ box , example on pair: Gbpusd, often lines also appear on other pairs like: usdcad, eurusd, so when im trying to delete them on usdcad example, they also disappear on gbpusd. Anybody know how to fix this issue?

Are you using a currency symbol changer to change the chart to different fx pairs? Or are you just opening new charts from the market watch list?

Thats why your having those issues my dude. If you use a currency symbol changer (which I do because it makes life a lot easier), the issue arrises when you want to draw currency specific trendlines for one currency, because as far as MT4 is concerned its still just the same chart, your just loading new data on it. So if you draw trendlines for one currency and then change to another using the symbol changer, those trendlines will still appear on the next fx pair you select. Annoying I know, because I have had this issue.

Either: -

1. Ignore the issue, maybe use different coloured trendlines for each currency.
2. Use the symbol changer to quickly analyse the pairs you want to trade, then open a new chart for that currency and do your detailed analysis there.
3. Hope the metaquotes update MT4/MT5 so its not so old school and shit, lolol.

I mainly try to focus on scalping, zone to zone.
