In this article I review MT4 window. You can easily manage the visibility of the elements of this window. You may also change the location of these elements. What I show you here could be called a typical arrangement of the MT4 window elements. You as the trader can decide which elements to see and where to place them. You can even change their sizes.

The following image shows a typical MT4 window.

The "Title Bar" of the window shows the name of the platform. The name of the platform usually refers to the name of the broker that you have obtained MetaTrader from. The Title Bar also shows the name and the timeframe of the current chart.

Section 1: Menus and Toolbars
Section 2: Market Watch window
Section 3: Charts Area
Section 4: Navigator Window
