MT5 Navigator Window
The MT5 Navigator window is mainly used to navigate the most widely used areas of the MT5 Platform. These areas are:
- Accounts: Demo and Live Accounts
- Indicators

- Custom Indicators:
- Scripts: Scripts are used to execute some tasks on the MetaTrader 5
As a trader once you have selected the Navigator Button the following navigator window will appear on your MT5.
Energy Trading Accounts Menu
The First menu option on Navigator list is Accounts tab. To view the accounts tab, you can click the expand button (marked as +), and a list of your saved accounts will appear. Every time you login with a new MT5 account the details will be saved under this "Accounts Tab".
By double clicking on any MT5 account you can activate the login and login to that account. You can switch from one MT5 account to the other using this energies accounts tab.
The example illustrated and explained below shows two accounts recorded under this tab, a demo MT5 account marked as a green cartoon and a Live MT5 account marked as a energies trading cartoon. From this energies accounts tab, a trader can switch between any of this two accounts by double clicking on any one of them.

These tutorials will be covered in more details later, but for now as a trader the following brief introduction about each will do.
Indicators: Indicators are energies technical analysis tools used in trading and placed on Energies chart, these tools are used to generate buy & sell energies trade signals.
Automated Energies Trading Expert Advisors: Automated bots that are used to place energies trades by generating buy & sell signal automatically using programs that are coded using the MQL4 programming language.
Custom Indicators: A custom indicator includes an indicator that you have modified or downloaded from the inter net and then installed it on your MT5 Energies Trading Platform, this technical indicator will be listed here as a "custom technical indicator"
Scripts: This is a function used to perform a certain task, for example if you open five energies trades and want to close all of them at once you can attach a "script close" on your chart thereby closing all open energies trades at once (However, you need to set up some setting on the MetaTrader to allow scripts execution trading, that is a topic for later.)
The Navigator will be one of your mainly used panel when trading, to access it using a shortcut, press "Ctrl+N" button key on your keyboard to display or hide it.
