In MT4 I have my chart and I have a MACD indicator below the chart in Indicator Window 1. Is there a way for me to add the SAR indicator to the Indicator Window 1 as well?

yup, just drag the indicator from the navigator window over the top of the macd

Drag and dropping doesn't work with MT4 on the SAR indicator even though it works on other indicators. When I try to drag and drop it over the MACD it just appears on the main chart. That's why I'm puzzled and asking has done this on MT4 so that I can try a strategy that I found.

Thanks

what will you do with placing PSAR on your MACD window? just curious..
open SAR on metaeditor and change
#property indicator_chart_window
with
#property indicator_separate_window
then compile..
like bobhall said, just drag the indicator from the navigator window over the top of the macd.
you need to set fixed minimum and maximum on both indies, so it dont change when you move your chart.

temon,

Thanks this worked perfectly!! I'm trying out a 5m scalping strategy so I need the SAR imposed onto the MACD.

Do you know where a good place to learn how to change the color of the indicators for example on the SAR make the sell dots red and the buy dots green?

Thanks
