Using Templates

[1954baby]

I am struggling to understand the concept of templates being new to PRT. For example I have two main charts lets say WTI and Brent (One is the real main chart). As I am watching the two main charts I often open up new chart with same instruments but with different indicators and possibly different time frames. My question is if I load a new chart for say Brent it will take the layout of the main chart. So how do I automatically load a new chart with a pre-saved layout. Or once the chart has been loaded with layout of the main chart load a different pre-saved layout?

 

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for the reply.  But it still does not help me out.

Hi   I must have misunderstood but it looked like you were wanting to make multiple templates to apply to copies of a chart.

My apologies for my curt reply.  Frustration is creeping in.

 

I trade Oil and Dax predominately on the m2 timeframe.  My basic template has both set up with the same indies along with the on m1 and m2 timeframes.  Now what I would like to do is open a new chart either Dax or Oil say on the M15 or M30 timeframes but with a different set of indicators.  As far as I can see I have to open the chart and which will have the same indicators as the main chart.  delete them all and then add the new ones.

 

Which to me seems madness.

Hi , no apology necessary, no offence taken, just not sure why you don't have separate templates for each indicator set. You can make up, name and save as many templates as you want. So when you open a new chart for the instrument just select the time frame and then load the appropriate template from your saved templates which will replace all the indicators.

It might be a bit late but thanks for the answer.  I thought I had done.  My apologies.
