Description:

The price/performance overlay allows you to plot and compare 2 symbols on the same chart. This is good for showing relative performance between 2 symbols ie. comparing an index (NASDAQ) with a component (MSFT). The user sets a base symbol for all comparisons. The base symbol and the currently loaded chart is then  used for all calculations. There are 2 methods available. Compare performance plots the % gain/loss starting from the first bar loaded. Compare price plots a normalized price plot in order to keep a sane scaling ratio.
