Saving a chart

[busfarehome]

Hi MT4 users,

Could you please help me to save a chart with indicators and analysis so that I can post it in a forum for advice?

I have tried right clicking on the chart which causes a menu to appear.
I then click on "save as picture".
When I click on this I am given 3 options, I have tried with all options.

When I highlight an option and click OK, I select "desktop" and "ok" but it does not save to my desktop.

Any help is appreciated so that I can save a chart to my desktop which will enable me to post it in a forum thread.

I am using MT4 through Smartlivemarkets.

cant you just use the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard, then paste it in Paint or something, then save that as a jpg file, and upload?

EDIT: just tried the "Save as Picture" option.
Seems to work fine. (except its a gif, I prefer jpg. anyway......)
Try searching your machine for the filename; maybe it has saved it successfully, just not on the desktop!

Save it as a template, it saves all your settings like trendlines, fibs, channels, moving averages, etc and then post the template (and any indicators required) to the thread.

Sorted, thanks to both of you.
