Two graphs with different scale x-axis.
Graph No. 1 with smaller time frame, Daily.
Graph No. 2 with larger time frame, Weekly.
Objective: Add vertical line to mark the same times in both graphs.

Trouble is both graph already utilise the secondary axis.
VBA is allowed.

There are probably multiple ways of doing this but they will depend on the kind of chart you have -- XY Scatter / Line / something else.

I was struggling with this - I was hoping to add a second High-Low Series to the same axis but it doesn't want to play (if you know how to add a second OHLC to the same axis then I think I could tweak it down to a HL series, then I'd only have one bar in that series (all the others being blank); this looked promising as I could get a single vertical line placed at the right place when it was the only stock chart on that axis.
Next I wanted to add a column chart - single bar as before, but it didn't want to combine stock and bar charts.
Next I explored vertical error bars on a stock chart with one point and this looks the most promising, I just need to calculate the y-value for that point and the length of the error bars (or have just the minus error bar going down to 0 and set the y-axis minimum according to the other series).
But I find the link you provided fails - have you withdrawn the file?
