You can add and customize the axes in your charts.
Add a Second Axis
When the range of values for different data series in a 2-D chart varies widely, or in instances when you have mixed types of data such as price and volume, you can plot one or more data series on a secondary value (y) axis. The scale of the secondary axis reflects the values for the associated series.
- Click the data series you want to plot along a secondary value axis.
- On the Format menu, click Selected Data Series, and then click the Axis tab.
- Click Secondary axis.
