mt-4 demo acc

HI

I'm happy to join the forex trading comunity ,by far the best site on the web!.

I downloaded the mt 4 demo platform and i started to fix my layout , how can i see my equity?

Is it possible to get the heikinashi charts in this platform?

thanks

Welcome to the forum.

You can see your equity in the 'terminal' window when the 'trade' tab at the bottom of the terminal window is selected. One way to use the heikin ashi indicator is to look in the 'navigator' window under 'custom indicators'. You can open those two windows by clicking on the 'view' button at the top of the platform or by pressing 'ctrl+T' and 'ctrl+N'.

Ive used the helkin ashki indicator on other charting systems and i cannot say that i like that way its displayed on the MT4 charts. It plots over the candles making the entire chart hard to read.

Ive gotten around this by creating a new chart and going into the chart properties and making the candle colors the same color as the background of the chart thus fading them into the background so the helkin ashki stands out and is clearly visible. SO when its all said and done i have a price chart then i just shrink up the other chart with the Helkin and put it below the other chart. (not as pretty as the fxtrek intellichart setup)

I am also working on plotting that indicator in a lower indicator window so that it does not plot on the candles and i can get rid of the 2nd chart.

"If anyone has already done this lemmie know"

Thank you

Did you know that you can make your chart on the foreground by going to the chart's properties? This will place the bars over the indicator.

Yeah,, ive given that a shot too, it still looks confusing to me with the HK bars laid over the candles,, i still say fxtrek does it best by plotting the HK as a lower indicator.

I'm a newbie in mt4 and need to know how to apply(sychronise)or setup downloaded files into my platform(i use north finance).Please i know these question has been posted million times, but i've been on these for the past 5 days but still can load my downloaded scripts.
