Download script
This tool is designed to enhance your trading workspace by providing a customizable text label directly on your MetaTrader chart. It allows you to quickly identify and organize different charts by displaying a specific name or title in the designated corner of your screen.
How it Works
The script functions by creating a dynamic visual element on your price chart. Instead of cluttering the interface with multiple windows, it places a clear text label that helps you keep track of which currency pair, timeframe, or trading strategy you are currently viewing.
Key features include:
- Custom Branding: You can set a specific "Template Name" to act as a header for your chart, making it easier to navigate between multiple open tabs.
- Visual Customization: The script provides several options to match the text style to your personal preference. You can choose the font color, adjust the size of the lettering, and toggle between standard and bold weights.
- Precision Placement: You have full control over where the label appears on the screen. By adjusting the horizontal and vertical distance settings, you can position the text in any corner (such as top-left, bottom-right, etc.) to ensure it does not overlap with your price candles or other technical indicators.
- Automatic Cleanup: The script is designed to be efficient; it automatically creates the label when loaded and ensures that the label is removed from the chart once you remove the script, keeping your workspace clean.
Essentially, this tool acts as a digital "signpost," allowing for a more organized and professional trading environment by clearly labeling your various market views.
