# Graph

This object is used for adding a chart of any security into the chart window, which allows tracing the price dynamics of several symbols at the same time. The object is anchored to a chart window and does not move when the chart is scrolled.

> When applied, this object inherits the current properties of a chart, to which it is applied.
