How can we display symbols on Power BI Charts at key places

My internal customers are now asking for ways to indicate peaks, valleys on charts (line charts, area charts, bar charts)

 

Specifically, we have an area graph and they would like me to have the report place a graphic or icon where the graph hits its max or min or where the x axis is today.  I've thought about conditionally formatting data labels but it appears that this is not possible.

 

Has anyone figured out how to do this?   If not, has anyone requested this functionality?

Hi,

 

According to your description, i think there is no such way to add custom shape to the chart visual.

But i have a workaround, see this:
