Forecast Model In Linechart

PowerBI Trial File 

 

I have a dataset that contains the date and the total headcount as of that date.

 

I have created a line chart and a custom calendar table. This line chart shows the actual headcount by calendar month. 

For the remaining time period, I want to show a forecast for it (based on any dummy calculation for now).. 

 

The forecast needs to be shown in dashed lines, and also connect to the actuals to make it holistic. 

 

Can you please tell me the metric calculation for this or how to go about this? Thank you for your time and help!
