Shaded standard deviation on line graph

Hello!

I am having trouble understanding error bars. I have data with average lines and i want to add the standard deviation as shaded area, but I only manage to show the upper error. the picture is the same, whether I add "standard deviation of value" to upper or lower bound (relative relationship). If I add it to both, there is no shaded area.

 

See the example image:

Is there a way I can show the error without adding average and upper/lower bound columns in power query? As the number of parallels differs and the dataset is huge, it is not a good option.

This is the result I want:

Here is an example dataset: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AfsS-dRbMLTaUgbwfJOwk0GAhKJBhdFe/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=11106...
