I want to add comments to a chart and have them become
part of the Excel chart. I think it is possible, but I
don't know how to do it.

For example, I want to add a comment describing a trend in
the plot area. I know how to create a text box, but how
do I make it a fixture like the title or axis labels.
 
I'm not sure what you mean by "fixture", but you can select a chart, and
type the text you want to appear on the chart.

As you type, you'll see the text in the formula bar.
Press Enter, and a text box will appear near the centre of the chart.
Drag it to any location within the chart, and format as required.
