On the Indices Trading Platform There are Two Ways for Saving

The Work Space - The workspace is the charts that you have opened along with the information on these charts such as the attached indices trading systems. Saving a workspace will save all this information and you can easily load this information any other time in your platform software.

On the workspace button on the MetaTrader 4 (shown below) a indices trader can save several different work spaces and load them at another time.

The Template - The template in other words is the indices trading system you are using to trade with. For example you have just placed a set of 4 indicators on your stock indices chart, but you also trade other charts and you don't want to redo all the work of putting the same indicators on the other charts all over again, so what do you do? You save it as a template and then load it on the other charts. But how does a indices trader do this on the Indices Trading Platform MT4.
