How Can I Get 2 Minute Offline Charts?

Greetings,

Does anyone know how to get 2 minute offline charts on pairs that don't show that as an option? I can get 2 minute offline chars on most pairs, but some pairs only give options for "5 minute", "1 hour" or "daily".

When you go to "File", "Open Offline" all the pairs come up, and you will see that a number of pairs do not have 2 Minute offline charts.

Anyone know how to get these?

This means that there is no history for the M2. Make sure that the script/indicator/ea that is suppose to generate the offline chart is functioning.

Also, in my personnel experience....attempting to run a large amount, "more than 6 pairs" on one client can lead to some buggy results. I tend to run multiple clients to get all the pairs.

Also check the Journal/Expert tabs for History Errors.

You can try the script/indicator/ea that generate the offline chart on an alternate tf...like M3

Thank you. Any idea how to install more than one MT4 on a computer? I installed another one from a different broker but when I click on the link on the desktop it says it cannot find the program. Any suggestions?

For the existing installation, go to the Program Folder and locate the Broker Folder, find the file called "terminal.exe", right click on it and choose "Send to Desktop (create shortcut)".

Installation of Mt4 from one broker should not conflict with the MT4 application from another broker.

Also you can run multiple client from the same broker, (each terminal will have a different account)

If you want multiple mt4 with the same broker, I usually copy the entire folder...Right Click the folder, choose "Copy" and right click anywhere in the programs folder and choose "Paste".

Use the instruction in the first paragraph to create shortcuts for each client

Just a side note, make sure you have a stable internet connection, that may feeds streaming to a laptop via wireless can cause connectivity issues (you will notice that webpages takes longer to load). A good lan cable connection works best

Thank you again. So let's say I want two copies of IBFX. I need to copy the entire IBFX folder and paste it someplace else, right? Then create an icon as you described in the first paragraph. Is this correct?
