The GTS charting package that comes with the FXSol platform www.fxsol.com allows you to do this. Sign up for a free demo to gain access to the charts.

I just took a look at the site. Looks like just what I needed, exept that it's not free. See, I'm just starting in fx trading and all the money I have are in my trading account, I don't want to withdraw funds yet. All I need is historical charts, that shouldn't cost anything as it's just recorded charts of the past, nothing more.
I checked that link and it does seem like just what I needed. Thanks a lot man.
