Chart displaying difference between 2 lines chart

Good morning all

I have a 2 lines chart with dates as x axis and price as y axis ( like a stock chart displaying 2 stocks prices by day, see below screenshot bottom chart).

So I have this 2 lines chart and I wonder if there is an embedded analytics that could calculate the difference of my prices without the pain of creating a column.

The result would something like below:

tks by advance

Hi @Anonymous ,

Nope, you can't use analytics features to analyze the diff of your fields. You need to create a new measure to calculate the difference between two fields.

If you confused on coding formula, please share some sample data for test:

I could do the trick by unpivoting the Query and adding a table to select the chart I wanted. see result in pictchart.PNG.

Now that I can select what I can display the two daily prices series I want to create a measure that calculate the difference between the 2 daily prices series. How can I do that (in case someone knows)?

HI @Anonymous ,

Can you please share some dummy data with the same structure for test? It seems like you have converted your table structure.

Notice: do mask on sensitive data.
