During the first launch of the AFMCharts several windows will open automatically. An example of these windows can be seen below:
Currency rate window (Japanese Yen rate against the US dollar)
To display another currency rate or some other market instrument, enter the relevant code in the field in the lower left hand corner of the chart:
For example, to display a 5-minute chart of the British Pound rate against the US dollar in this window, you should enter GBPUSD.
