This is assuming that you are using Metatrader platform.

1. Right click on your chart and then left click on "Save as picture"

2. At the moment, the image size that you can post is restricted, so it is better to select "Active chart" as this will allow you to post without resizing first. Left click on "OK"

3. You then have to name the image file and decide where you want to store it. I usually temporarily store it on my desktop - but up to you
Left click on "save"

I cannot attach more than 3 images in one post, so will continue in a new post

4. Now you have the chart image stored in your computer and need to attach it to your post.
If you scroll down, you will see the "Browse" button. Left click on this

and the file upload window will open. I usually just click on recent documents as it is easier to find the file. I also click on "Date modified to bring the most recent file to the top. I think there is a way to make this action default, but I don't know how
Select the file that you want to attach and click on open, or just double click on the relevant file.

5. A little further down, you will see the "Add the file" button. Left click on this and the file will upload

This will have attached the image file to your post.


Sometimes you may want to insert the image between lines of text, if so, place your cursor where you want the image inserted

and click on "place inline"

If you do not have metatrader or the option to save the chart with your platform, you will probably have to take a screenshot and edit with Paint or something like that. Save the image to your computer and then continue from step 4
