plotting chart with values in multiple column (as pivot chart)
Hi all,
Very new to power BI and eager to learn and be involved in the community =)
First i will show what i did previously using powerquerry and pivot chart in excel 2016 and then i show where i am stuck in powerBI
Basically i have a simple table querry from SQL:

Then after , using a pivottable i put the year and values in columns in pivottable field and the pivot chart shows what i want:

*ignore the 2nd Y axis (bar chart) for the moment.
Using Get data in powerBI i querry the same table and i am able to get:

I am able to get the a chart of the Average Price, Min Price, Max Price vs Day or Average price of 2017, 2018, 2019 vs Day but i like to have all 9 lines in the same chart ( as per excel)
I have been trying this for the past few hours but i cant seem to figure it out weather its by column hierachy etc. I have transform the Date into seperate 3 columns to be year, Month, Date so i could avoid the Date Hierachy but it doesnt work as well.
Just to make it simple, with the table i have of 4 columns (Date, PriceMin, PriceAvg, PriceMax), i want to plot Price vs Month/Date. I want to have 9 series : 2017Min,2017Average,2017max, 2018Min,2018Average,2018max, 2019Min,2019Average,2019max (same as my excel pivot chart)
PS: Fecha is Date and Precio is Price. I do not need the Moving average as seen in my excel example for now but it would be good to have too.
Regards

Just to make things clearer:
Bascially with my source table below (4 columns sourcedata of Date, Price Min, Price Average, Price Max) ,
i like to plot Price vs Month/Day with 9 series of 2017Min, 2017Avg, 2017Max, 2018Min, 2018Avg, 2018Max, 2019Min, 2019Avg, 2019Max.
Prefereably as i have in pivot chart too , a filter for Month.

hi, Anonymous
According, currently line char/bar chart not support drag multiple fields to legend. These charts' axis and values field support multiple fields for now.
For your requirement, you can vote below idea and refer to a workaround in it:Ability to use multiple fields on a legend like an Excel pivot chart
