Chart Overlay

Hi! I want to make a chart overlay, I'd like to move the transactions to the left that are in minutes and transaction with count to the right. But since this is my first time using it I don't have an idea, please help me.

Here is my search and the graph, thank you !

index="appdynamics" source="metrics.log" sourcetype="metrics" name=RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:VerySlowCalls OR name=RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:CallsPerMin OR name=RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:ErrorsPerMin OR name=RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:StallCount OR name=RDYWPD01:TomcatA:PortalProd:AveResponseTime
| timechart span=1d avg(value) by name
| rename RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:VerySlowCalls as "Very Slow Calls", RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:CallsPerMin as "Calls per minute", RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:ErrorsPerMin as "Error per minute", RDYWPD01-TomcatA:ServiceProxy:PortalProd:StallCount as "Stall Counts", RDYWPD01:TomcatA:PortalProd:AveResponseTime as "Average Response Time (ms)"alt text

here are the docs on creating an overlay:
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.6.0/Viz/Chartcontrols#Chart_overlay_example_.28dual_a...

click on the little paint brush up top in the corner of your panel. Click on "Chart Overlay". Select the fields of interest for your overlay. In your case, it would be "Calls per Minute", "Error per Minute", "Stall Counts" and "Very Slow Calls", i believe.
