I find that viewing and interpreting charts with multiple vertically stacked windows is much easier at stockcharts.com as compared to Metastock. A big reason for this is that when you add multiple indicator windows in stockcharts website, the height of the remaining windows is not automatically compressed as in Metastock. The way it works in the website is that you have to scroll up and down to see those multiple windows, which allows you to focus on a few indicators at a time within windows that have sufficiently tall y-axes, and without the distraction of everything else crammed on one screen.

Is there a way to do this in Metastock? (please say yes!).

Dear Forum Moderators, please respond to say either yes or no to the question above.

In any case, if others are having the same issue, here's what i'm doing to get around it - it's not exactly what i wanted, but seems to be working reasonably well. I open the same security side by side in two columns, and then add various indicators above those, The side by side arrangement allows me to have 4 inner windows in the same column with a reasonable window height for each. This way i can have 6 readable indicator windows (3 in each column) vertically stacked above the price chart, on the same screen. This side by side arrangement also works well for looking at two different time-frames on the same screen (e.g. weekly on the left and daily on the right).

After laboriously arranging all those windows, also learnt the hard way to save as a layout, and then save again as template. Then the same template can be applied to any new security.
