How to view multiple charts in MetaTrader4

MT4 allows you to monitor multiple charts at once. An advantage of viewing multiple charts is that you can quickly do timeframe analysis where you are viewing one pair but on different timeframes.

The example shown below showcases multiple charts of GBPUSD, which are viewed on different timeframes.

Other than viewing multiple timeframes, you can view multiple currency pairs as shown below.

To view multiple charts, you can click on the Window tab located at the top navigation menu and navigate to your preferred option as shown below.

Alternatively, you can press Alt + R or click on the dedicated “Windows” icon as shown below.
