2 data series in same window with different scales. Possible?

[pjsmith]

Hi,

I'd like to chart 2 data (and more) series in the same window, but with independent scaling. For instance, 2 different indexes. They'd start the period at the same point on the chart and update independently, with the appropriate scaling. This is to compare changes between instruments. Does this make sense? Is this possible? When I add 2 data series to a chart, it seems to scale for the actual numbers of each instrument rather than scaling.

Thanks.

Hello pjsmith,

Thanks for your post.

I can read your post a couple of different ways so i will offer up a couple of ideas and hopefully one of these will click.

1) Add both dataseries to one chart, each in their own panel and they will update at the same time and will be independently scaled. See picture

2) Add both data series to the same panel, they will overlay somewhat but if that is not a concern they will be independantly scaled by the use of the left side scale for one and a right side scale for the other. See picture.

Thank you - For anyone else reading this, if you want to put the 2 on the chart and get the separate scales, you need to set the 'scale justification' in the data properties to be left/right for each series.
