Hi,
I need to show a line which has the actual sales by date which have passed in the month and then a dotted line which shows the average sales in the current month * the day of the month. So for example:
Date | Sale |
01/09/2021 | 100 |
02/09/2021 | 200 |
The above are the actual sales, the average will be 150. for future dates i want to create a plot using dotted lines to show something like
Date | Forecast |
03/09/2021 | 450 (150*3) |
04/09/2021 | 600 (150*4) |
and so on. Any help will be appreciated
