I would like to plot two stocks at once on the same price chart.  Is there a way to do this?

(*I really want to plot only recent daily data but the price scale should be independent as the prices are quite different.)

P.S. to my just made posting - I also have TC2007 and could use it too.

You can do this in both StockFinder and TC2000 version 12.4, but not in TC2000 version 7 (although you could use the Comparison Symbol feature there to do something similar).

In StockFinder, select Add Indicator/Condition to Chart (green +) and choose the Price for Symbol indicator from the list. Then drag and drop the Price for Symbol indicator into the main Price History pane and choose Overlay. This should put it in the same pane, but not in the same scale.

Do not drag and drop it onto Price History itself and choose Overlay with Price History because that would put it in the same scale as well.

In TC2000 version 12.4, you can click on Price History (the symbol and possibly company name in green in the same pane where price is plotted) and choose Add Plot Here. Then choose the desired symbol from the Industries, Indexes, T2s, ETFs, 4x or Symbols tabs.

An easier might be to start typing the symbol in the Search box after selecting Add Plot Here. This should quickly bring the symbol to the top of the list to make it easier to find and select.

No matter which method you choose, select Scale by itself in the Scaling Options window when prompted.

After following your instructions in this thread I've adjusted both plots to Fixed Percentage and the spacing and number of horizotal lines to be the same for each plot.

 Is there any way to identify what that percentage is for the secondary plot?  

Can they be scaled so the parameters (percentage and number of lines) are the same while the absolute numbers of the scaling are not linked?
