Questions: to start with MetaTrader and forex - page 24

 

I have tried to find the location if the default tools folder within MT4. I have searched the net, several platforms and several MT4 only forums but have not found the location. I want to have a second copy of Fib retracements with different settings so that i can save time diring charting. Does anyone know where it is located and if I can make a copy and rename it?

thanks

Default tools are harcoded on the soft.

 

Working on different tools of trading is not easy for every trader. It requires lots of knowledge and practice to use them. After practicing for 6 months, I could only learn about stop loss and margin trading. When I started trading this market slowly, I learned about other tools.

metatrader 4 manual?

I know absolutly nothing about metatrader 4 and have seen a manual on it but it takes the position that you know about trading to begin with. Is there an absolut newbies manual out there that explaines like lets say on the market watch you have your pairs and on some of them the numbers are in red and some the numbers are in green. Does this mean that the red is in a down trend and the green is in a up trend? What is the best way to trade on both a up and down trend? Little things like this that can be hard to understand for the untrained.

thanks

 

MT4 is only useful if you know the basics of Forex. You need the basics first. There is a plethora of sites for this. One place to start is babypips.com. They have allot of educational basics.
