Re: How looks like your trading setup?
Six charts across M15 to H4 for correlation work makes sense, but I'd be curious how you lay them out when you are helping on someone else's account. Do you keep their charts on a separate screen or profile, so you never place an order in the wrong terminal?
That one bit me years ago. Two MT5 windows open, same pair, different accounts, and I closed a position on the wrong one. Since then each account gets its own colour scheme, dark blue background for mine and grey for anything else.
On the correlation side, I found six charts was more than I could actually read in real time. I ended up with EURUSD and GBPUSD side by side on M5, plus DXY on M15 above them, and the H4 only gets looked at before the session starts.
If you switch between M15 and H4 on the same chart, do you keep separate templates for each? My levels kept disappearing when I flipped timeframes until I set them to show on all periods.
What's the one chart you'd keep if you had to close five of them?
