Remove trend line from a line chart with continuous x-axis

I need to remove the trend line from my line chart, but can't find the option to do so. The x-axis is set to "continuous" and needs to remain continuous. However, the trend line is not meaningful and needs to be removed. Please help, thank you.

HI @SGVACG,

What type of trend line did you mean? The forecast line generated by the analysis panel or the line that analysis based on your value fields?

If you mean the first one, you can turn off it at the 'analysis panel':

Use the Analytics pane in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

If you mean the second one, you need to manually remove the trend category from your fields.

You can share some more detailed information to help us clarify your scenario if you are confused about how to remove the categories.
