In reply to Guy. Hi Guy, The spread is not showing up because the lines are very close together, so they show up as one line.

Hi Hugh,
I did exactly that but the Ask line is shown only on the lower TF charts, sometimes I see it on the H1, never on the H4 & Daily charts, how can I see it on the Daily charts?

Thanks

This is so important in determining risk reward that Ive been trying to find the ask line but couldn’t until now. Thanks for making it so easy.

In reply to Baback D..

Happy to hear it helped. Yeah, kind of a pain to add it to each chart, but can save you some money. You probably know this, but you can save a template and just apply it to all your charts…slightly faster.

Hope your trading is going well.

Thanks dude, it really helped. i just couldn’t place the ask line. I had tried the “option” of MT4 and clicked on “show ask line”, but that doesn’t work until you do it on each chart, so it seems.
And yeah, knowing about spread matters and is crucial, especially when you’re placing your stop just above a level. If you’re not aware of the spread and, bid & ask, you might be placing it on the level, or even inside the range you’re avoiding, so, super important to know about this.

Cheers
