How do I put two or more indicators on top of each other in the sub-window?

In this article, I will show you how to put two or more Forex indicators on top of each other in the sub-window of the MetaTrader4 or MetaTrader5 trading terminal. It's a very useful, comfortable, and quite interesting combination of two indicators in one sub-window. Each indicator's data is adapted to the data of the other indicator.

In the applied price field, you need an indicator that has the "previous indicator's data" option. Most indicators on MetaTrader 4 have this option.

These indicator combinations can, in my opinion, be useful tools for scalping in shorter time frames. Use your imagination to create a profitable Forex strategy today.
