By default, MultiCharts displays the close (unadjusted) price for Yahoo instruments. It is possible to change the Yahoo connection parameters in the Registry Editor to receive the adjusted close prices.
Here is how to do it:

1. Close all MultiCharts Processes.
2. Go to Windows Start menu and launch Regedit.exe (type in Regedit.exe and press Enter).
3. Please go to this path:

for 32bit MC: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\MultiCharts\Datafeeds\FreeDataFeed\Yahoo\v1
for 64bit MC: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\MultiCharts64\Datafeeds\FreeDataFeed\Yahoo\v1
for 32bit MC.Net: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\ MultiCharts .NET\Datafeeds\FreeDataFeed\Yahoo\v1
for 64bit MC.Net: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\ MultiCharts .NET64\Datafeeds\FreeDataFeed\Yahoo\v1

4. Double click on the Close string value.
5. Insert the following string in the Value data: field:
chart/result/../indicators/adjclose/../adjclose
Click OK.

After that is done, start MultiCharts, build a chart for a Yahoo symbol and do the Reload to load the data with the adjusted close prices.
