Hello,

I am attempting to create a dynamic line chart in excel that can adjust to the length of the series data length. The chart will be a line chart that shows the performance of two stocks over time and I won't always have returns that match the same periods of time and need the chart to adjust accordingly. For example, one series might have data from January 2014-December 2017 while the other will have data only from January 2016-October 2017. So the chart will need to be smart enough to only display the returns for the length of time which each series has a value.

I have been able to accomplish this using the OFFSET function and defined names, but my sheet also allows the user to change out the asset with a toggle and it appears the offset solution is not compatible with the toggle.

Please click this link to view a picture of the chart I would like to work with:

Basically, I need the chart to "snap" to only display the blue line where the orange line is being displayed. 

Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Hi Michael

It would better if you can attach some sample data in a worksheet and describe what you have done and what you wanted.

It will make it easier for others to help.
