Switching the Display of Positions and Order Levels in MT4 (Windows)

Displaying Current Positions and Pending Stop and Limit Orders on the Chart

MT4 can display current positions, associated closing orders, and pending stop and limit orders along with their respective closing orders on the chart.

This feature can be toggled on and off as needed, and we will guide you on how to do so.

Display of Positions and Orders

Display of Current Positions

Current positions are indicated on the chart by a green line. The associated closing limit and stop orders are shown with a red line.

Display of Pending Limit and Stop Orders

Pending unexecuted limit and stop orders are also indicated on the chart by a green line. The associated closing limit and stop orders are shown with a red line.

How to Toggle the Display of Positions and Orders

Select 'Options' from the 'Tools' menu in MT4.
In the 'Options' dialog, under the 'Charts' tab, checking the box next to 'Show positions and orders on the chart' will enable the display, and unchecking it will hide them.
