Hi Ng,

Welcome to our forum. 

You'll notice you only have data for January in your file. In order to draw a line you need at least two months or two quarters or two years of data to join the dots.

I suspect your system uses date format mm/dd/yyyy whereas mine uses dd/mm/yyyy. If so, you need to go to the first Changed Type step in Power Query and delete it. Then right-click the date columns (one by one) and choose 'Change Type' > 'Using Locale...' > select Date for the data type and 'English (Australia)' for the locale.
