Overlay in MetaTrader

Hey Guys,

I've just recently started to work with MetaTrader after using VT for a long time and I'm just curious to know if its possible to place two currencies into the same chart on MetaTrader?

For instance - could I have EURUSD and USDJPY in the same chart to create an overlay for comparison?

Thanks in advance.

I am not aware of any way to overlay pairs in MT4.

However you can do multiple overlays of indicators. Just drag and drop from the Navigator to the indicator window.

Not possible,
Ps.:
And at the same time i was looking to answer your question
I found that you can drag and drop currency from the market watch to the chart, and it will change the currency for the window...

I have loaded this indicator, but can not get it to work. Do I need to use a different font, or type something special for it to work on the pair I want to see?

Thanks in advance.

MQL4 code will not work in MT5 until it is rewritten into MQL5. It may sound easy, but it is not.

If any of you are still having problems, make sure that you type the SubSymbol as it is written by your broker MT4 platform. If they use capitals make sure you do. Also most brokers use a broker code after the pair name (EG GKFX use 'SB'). Make sure you include this in the SubSymbol window.

Good Luck and thanks to all those of you who offered the indicators.

Is there a way to split the indicator window in two, so that the ADX Indicator occupies 50% of space and CCI indicator occupies 50%? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
