Accessing charts from a different PC

Hi folks,

I was wondering if any of you can offer some advice.
I would like to access the exact charts I have on my home MT4 platform from another PC (at work).
What I mean is, that on the home platform I draw trendlines, horizontal lines and other objects that I want to be able to see when logging in from another computer. There are just too many that I dont have the time and cant remember to re-draw them again on another MT4 platform.

Is there any way this can be done?
The only way I thought this can be done, is by copying the chart history files and then putting them in the MT4 folder at my work PC.
But there might be an easier/more efficient way of doing this.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

Hi,

What about Remote Desktop or TightVNC? You will have access to your home computer with MT4 platform.

I thought about that but I'd rather not use a program like that.
I'm not the only that uses the PC at home so that could be a problem.

Thanks

You can have multiple accounts on Windows, but ok.

I have one more idea. You can write a script that saves all objects into a file and then sends this file to a FTP server using DLL. On your PC at work you will have similar script. It will download the file from the FTP server and recreate objects on your chart.

That's actually a great idea. This is the type of thing I was looking for.
I'm not that tech savy with MT4 so I'll have to see how this can be done cuz I have no idea.

Thanks Vito.
