Format Symbol - Scaling

Use the Scaling tab to modify the scaling settings for the y-axis of a symbol data in a Chart Analysis window. When applied to its own sub-graph, the y-axis displays values specific to the symbol data. To open the Format Symbol window after creating a chart, use the View > Chart Analysis Preferences menu sequence. On the General tab, check the Prompt for format setting.

Axis

To toggle the display of the left/right price axis, use the menu bar Format > Format menu sequence and select the General tab. This does not affect the left or right vertical scaling that is applied from the Format Symbol tab.
