When searching and evaluating symbols, two or more symbols can be added to the chart to compare movements.

Add Symbols

Add symbols by clicking the + icon at the top-left of the chart. You can add multiple symbols at once.

When adding a symbol, there are three scale options for how the symbol is added to the chart.

  • Same % Scale: Symbol will be added to the existing chart alongside other symbols, and the price scale will denote price % changes.

  • New price scale: Symbol will be added to existing chart, and new price scale will be added on the left or right of the chart, alongside existing price scale.

  • New pane: Symbol will be added to a new pane on the chart.

Editing Scale

The scale on which a symbol is charted can be changed by right-clicking on the symbol's display on the chart and selecting the Pin to Scale drop-down. The Pin to Scale drop-down will display multiple options: starting a new scale on the right, pin to the existing scale, or pin to a new scale on the left of the chart.

Removing Symbols

Remove symbols from the chart by clicking anywhere on the symbol plot and hitting delete on your keyboard. You can also remove by clicking the remove button for the symbol on the top-left of the chart.
