# How To Clean Up Your Meta Trader 5 Chart

The original charting layout for Meta Trader is pretty ugly, and to be honest, it's pretty hard to read. Luckily for you, I already made a super clean chart template you can use.

### Step 1

Download this chart Layout File

{% file src="/files/OEIlo5ODDHs992jh929d" %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
MAC USERS: Make sure you save this tpl file to your Desktop. When loading the template you'll need to find it under "My Mac Desktop"&#x20;
{% endhint %}

### Step 2

Right Click on your chart in Meta Trader > Templates > Load Templates

### Step 3

Drag the chart layout file you downloaded earlier into this folder

### Step 4

Click "open" and your chart should look clean :)

{% hint style="info" %}
If your chart ever goes back to the original look, just right-click on your chart > templates > load template > then open the "TradingLab Chart Template" again.
{% endhint %}

### Step 5

Once you changed your chart layout, you may have to add the indicator again.
