Here's an example

http://www.dailyfx.com/charts/netdaniachart

1. Right click the chart
2. Choose overlay
3. Choose currency pair

These charts would be much better if the overlay were displayed in candles instead of a line.

Would be so much easier to have everything all in one MT4 window instead of having to open NetDania charts every time I want to compare to pairs.

MT4 only uses one Y axis, at the right, there is no facility for a left Y axis so showing multiple symbols is very involved and involves rescaling the overlaid symbol data hen the chart is scrolled, scaled or updates.
20 pips a day isn't too much to ask . . .

what is a better one that does not repaint. There is one in the market going for 450usd. But that is just too much for my pocket.
