# Chart overlays

How to add multiple assets on one chart

The **Chart Overlay** feature lets you add one or more assets (trading instruments) to an existing chart. By overlaying charts, you can clearly see relationships between different assets, such as NQ and ES or RTY. Changes in the price of one instrument may signal upcoming changes in the price of another, helping you make more informed trading decisions.

**Note:** You can also add synthetic instruments as overlays. These can be created through the [**Synthetic Symbol**](/quantower/portfolio-panels/synthetic-symbols.md) panel. For example, you can create volatility indices or spreads as additional indicators.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.quantower.com/quantower/analytics-panels/chart/chart-overlays.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
