Not a bad idea...pull them up side by side and just tinker till you get it where you can spot the same patterns.

The issue may be that they really move in close proximity but the volume/ticks are quite different. I normally use a 1 or 5 minute chart and other than the larger volume the patterns and flow look about the same so maybe a tick chart on ES won't work well?
I sometimes use a 2-min chart in the past - and I when I checked the ES 2-min it looks very close to the YM 2-min.
