On the Platform There are Two Ways for Saving
The Work Space - The workspace is the charts that you have opened along with the information on these charts such as the attached trading systems. Saving a work-space will save all this data and you as a trader can use easily load this information any other time in your platform software.
On the workspace button on the MT4 (shown below) a trader can save several different work spaces & load them at another time.
The Template - The template in other words is the trading system you are using to trade with. For example you have just placed a set of 4 indicators on your EURUSD chart, but you also trade the GBPUSD and you don't want to redo all the work of putting the same indicators on the GBPUSD all over again, so what do you do? You save it as a template and then load it on the GBPUSD. But how does a trader do this on the Platform MetaTrader 4.
