okay quick question you guys, on the mt4 platform how do you display different charts on different monitors on the same platform?

for example eurusd on one moniter, cable on the other?

thanks in advance guys

It doesn't seem to be a possibility within MT4 as the charts are "fixed" into the program. Many stock trading platforms like MBT Pro which I have a demo for at the moment have the option to "unfix" a chart and drag it where you want it to have.

So the remaining option in your situation is to install multiple MT4's and launch them separately. That's what I've done too.

Since I have 2 moniters for my desktop and then a laptop and now a netbook...I have multiple installs of the same MT4 setup. I keep them all identical by copying the folder structure every once in awhile. They all log into the same live account. One other advantage to having multiple installs, is I can have multiple order windows setup and waiting to quickly reverse an order, pull off half, tighten stops etc without having to fumble around hitting the "OK" button and reopening a new order window. here is a little snapshot of my folder structure

You dont have to install multiple copies.
Just un-maximize metatrader, then drag and stretch it to fit both screens. Then bring up whatever charts you want on both screens.

I have EUR, AUD, JPY on one side, and CHF, NZD, CAD on the other.
Works fine.

My trading station. Might need to add 1 or two screens on top but it works more or less OK for me this far.

Hey Damien, yeah it's a n200 only a more powerful version - core2duo 2ghz with 2GB RAM and 256 NVidia video. I've had it for 2 years now - a truly rock solid machine

I wonder how those of you with more than two screens run them. Is it just several PCs ? Or multi-monitor cards ?

I use 2 screens on one workstation and one on a netbook, but its easy to connect several monitors to one workstation by buying USB graphics cards ~50-90 € for charting its fine.

And no, 2 Monitors on 1 CPU doesn't affect speed that much.

FF only for News.
