REally anxious as typing.
I have accidentally drag a completed EUR/USD trade from terminal(Ctrl+T), account history into another chart - USD/JPY

And the usd/jpy chart has been totally changed to the eur/usd chart. (even the tab has been renamed EUR/USD)

All my trendlines, markings & stuffs from the usd/jpy chart is gone?!... =(

Is there anyway i can get back my UJ chart?
Using MT4, Version4, Build 432.


Am loss for words at the moment, but i do hope someone has a solution to this
(dont think i be able to sleep now....)

Thanks a million!

All you need to do is drag the USDJPY symbol back onto your chart and drop it there....................

you have no idea how relieved i felt after getting it back. Thanks alot BlueCirrus!!
Felt like an ant on a hot pan when it happened.

cant imagine i freaked out over it which require a simple solution. lol

Was not intending to shutdown MT4 till i found a solution in case shutting it down "sealed the chart"

If i were to shut MT4 down, will i still be able to get UJ back the next time i login?

In fact, all your USDJPY stuff was still on the EURUSD chart. But of course as the price is very different, all wasn't visible because out of the window.

There is also another simple solution.

At the left bottom corner of the chart, you can just type USDJPY,H1 if you want USDJPY H1 chart. If you're using a micro account, you may want to type USDJPYm,H1.

I hope you always save your indicators as templates so that you can easily load it when they disappear. I understand it may not be easy to save everytime you add trendlines and all. But if you're using certain set of indicators alone, you can have it saved as template.

Never knew that! Thanks.
Should clarify though that the editing window only appears after double clicking in that corner over the date axis.
The message to double click for editing only appears when the cursor is moved over that spot.
Also a letter type time period needs to be a Capital, or just a number will do.

Happy to share small things I know. This forum actually taught me many things that. Time to repay.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that.

At the left bottom corner where you see the year 2013 (or some other year if you were backtesting), you need to double click on it to see the edit area. Thanks for pointing this for those who didn't know EaglePip.
