I want to compare two securities and would like to plot them on the same chart. How can I do this?

Hold down CTRL and hit the C key (CTRL-C).

Pick the ticker, color and be sure visible is checked!

If you ever want to remove it do CTRL-C again and uncheck visible.

If that doesn't do what you want, you may want to check out the following videos covering other techniques using multiple symbols simultaneously:

Thanks Bruce,

This is exactly what I wanted. I'm not sure why the base security changes color as I move from symbol to symbol, but I was able to do the analysis I wanted. i wish there were a way to set the start point rather than just use the left side of the chart.
