Scatter chart

Hi,

I wanted to create a chart to show price changes over the time.

I used scatter chart. In the simple case, as shown in my first example below: point to point

I have an article, in early2015 it was $ 60, after the first change, it becomes 50 in late March, and down to 40 at the end of 2015.

2016-02-15_15h17_49.png

But in somes cases complex, I can observe different prices for the same date as shown in my another example: point to multipoints

2016-02-15_15h21_25.png

So how can I do?  anyone have idea about it.

Thanks

Hi,

Can you post some sample data? It seems like you should be able to do it with a scatter chart.

Thanks

Why don't you use CandleStick chart, which is the appropriate visualization for your kind of data?

What if you concatenate these two tables and then pull all the distinct values? As a result of this, you will have a cleaner data model to work with:
