The Importance of Charts in Forex Trading

Charts in Deriv MT5 visualize changes in instrument prices over time, serving as essential tools for technical analysis and the operation of Expert Advisors. They allow traders to monitor current prices in real-time and respond quickly to market changes. To open a chart, simply select an instrument in the Market Watch window, right-click, and select the 'Chart Window' option. Alternatively, you can drag a symbol from the Market Watch onto the chart window or use the 'New Chart' command from the 'File' menu.

Types of Charts Available

Deriv MT5 offers three different types of charts, each providing unique visual insights into price movements:

1. Gráficos de Linha: O tipo mais simples, os gráficos de linha mostram as variações de preço ao longo do tempo, ligando os preços de fecho com uma única linha. They are useful for getting a clear view of overall trends without clutter.
   ‍
2. Gráficos de Barras: Os gráficos de barras fornecem mais detalhe ao apresentar os preços de abertura, máximo, mínimo e fecho para cada período de tempo. Each bar shows a vertical line indicating price range, with horizontal lines representing opening and closing prices.
   ‍
3. Gráficos de Velas: Semelhantes aos gráficos de barras, mas com uma representação visualmente mais abrangente, os gráficos de velas apresentam os mesmos dados de abertura, máximo, mínimo e fecho, em que o corpo indica a amplitude de preço entre os preços de abertura e de fecho. The color of the candlestick can indicate whether the market moved up or down during the period.

Customizing Your Charts

You can customize your chart view by right-clicking on the chart and selecting 'Properties' or by pressing F8. In the Common Tab, you can choose between Bar, Candlestick, or Line charts, adjust Chart Shift for better viewing, enable Autoscroll for real-time updates, and choose scaling options to maintain consistent vertical proportions.

Separador Exibir

In the Show Tab, you can manage what information is displayed on your charts. Options include showing or hiding elements such as the trading symbol name, timeframe, OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) line for detailed price data, and quick trading buttons for efficient trade execution. You can also display Bid and Ask price lines and tick volumes for analysis.
‍

Colors Tab

The Colors Tab allows you to customize the color display of your charts. You can choose predefined color schemes or set custom ones according to your preferences, adjusting colors for various elements like up bars, down bars, and volume lines for personalized visualization.
‍

Working with Multiple Charts

Deriv MT5 supports the ability to open multiple charts simultaneously, which can help you monitor various instruments or timeframes. To organize your charts, navigate to the ‘Windows’ menu and select your preferred arrangement type.
‍

Setting the Number of Bars

By default, Deriv MT5 shows up to 100,000 bars in your charts. If you find that only a few bars are visible, you can adjust this setting by going to ‘Tools’, selecting ‘Options’, and navigating to the ‘Charts’ tab. There, you can set the number of bars per chart from 5,000 to unlimited. However, be mindful of your device’s capabilities; if it struggles under heavy loads, consider reducing the number of bars displayed.
