# How to add multiple instruments into a NinjaTrader chart panel


| One particularly useful feature in the NinjaTrader app is the ability to add multiple instruments to a single chart panel. This allows traders to simultaneously view and analyze the price action of different instruments, facilitating correlation studies, comparative analysis, or multi-asset strategies—all within a unified interface.

**By combining multiple instruments in one chart panel, you can:**

**Compare price movements:** Identify trends, divergences, or correlations between markets.

**Overlay instruments:** Visualize two or more instruments on the same price scale for direct comparison.

**Enhance analysis:** Use custom indicators across multiple instruments for deeper insights.

| In the following steps, we’ll walk through how to add multiple instruments to a chart panel in NinjaTrader, ensuring you can maximize this functionality to enhance your trading workflow.


1. First you open your NinjaTrader app. Start with the **RIGHT CLICK** on the panel and go to **DATA SERIES**:
