What is MT4 Gold Charts Tabs?

When you open many gold charts on the MetaTrader 4 xauusd software, these xauusd charts are arranged in navigation tabs bar just below the MT4 xauusd chart workspace as shown below.

If on your MetaTrader 4 software this display bar is not highlighted - as in the example shown above - you can follow the following procedure to show this MetaTrader 4 bar as well as these MetaTrader 4 tabs.

On the 'View' menu drop down list option, the fourth button is named "Charts Bar" as shown above. To view this display bar on the MT4 platform just click and check or tick this button and the it will appear as shown below displaying all the open xauusd charts as tabs that a trader can use to open any of these listed xauusd charts.

Once you tick this option the MetaTrader 4 bar appears and this MT4 bar also has right and left arrows that a trader can use to scroll to the left or to the right and navigate other open xauusd charts from this MetaTrader 4 bar.

These MetaTrader 4 xauusd chart tabs are used to organize all the open xauusd charts in MetaTrader 4 platform in an orderly manner. This MetaTrader 4 tab also gives the trader easy access to any xauusd chart that they may have opened.

As the trader continues to open more xauusd charts, this MetaTrader 4 Bar of chart tabs adds navigation arrows to the right and to the left of this MetaTrader 4 bar, this way a trader can scroll to the left or to the right of this MT4 bar of chart tabs until they find the gold chart for the xauusd that they want to trade.

For ease of navigation each tab on this MetaTrader 4 bar also shows the gold chart timeframe for which this particular xauusd chart is set for. The last MT4 Tab does not show the gold chart timeframe and a trader has to use the right and left scroll arrow buttons next to this tab to navigate. Once the trader reaches one end that arrow is then grayed out - as shown above, the right arrow scroll button above is grayed because the first xauusd chart - xauusd chart is the first xauusd chart on the right side of this MetaTrader 4 bar.
