Grid, Volumes, AutoScroll and MT4 Indices Chart Shift Options on MT4
Grid
The MT4 grid button on the charts menu option of the MT4 Indices Software is used to draw grid lines as illustrated and shown below. A trader might prefer to trade with grids on stock chart or not and will use this button to show or hide the Grid.

Volumes
Volumes in Indices represent tick volumes or the number of times the tick for stock trading price changes during a specific time period. The greater the tick shifts the more the volumes. These volumes in Indices are used to estimate the number of traders who participate in the stock market.
Volumes are drawn as green bars below each candlestick, & the height of these green bars represents the tick volumes for a particular candle. ( Shotcut keys for Volumes: Ctrl+L )
