Periodicity Toolbar Menu on Energy Trading Platform

Periodicity just means chart timeframes, in MT4 this toolbar is used to select which chart timeframes to trade with.

The time frames listed are:

1. 1 Minute - M1
2. 5 Min - M5
3. 15 Minute - M15
4. 30 Minutes - M30
5. 1 Hour - H1
6. 4 Hours - H4
7. Daily - D1
8. Weekly - W1
9. Monthly - MN

As a trader you only require to trade with only about 3 chart timeframes, for example let's say a trader only requires the 15 minute, the 1 hour and the 4 hours time frame, then on the periodicity toolbar a trader can hide all the others that are not required using the following method.
