i think i need goal seek or other type of statistic function
difficult to explain without drawing a picture, but i need to figure out
future "x" values with given "y" values and also with a given line. the "y" axis = 1,000,000 100,000 1,000 100 1 0 need to figure out how to get the "x" values to fit a straight, positive sloping (45degree angle) if graphed out. sorry i can't be more clear. thanks if someone can help. also given is a straight line with a positive slope. |

Very easy:
Just set x=y for each point being plotted. Also insure that the scaling of both axis' are the same. -- Gary's Student gsnu200704 "monkeytrader" wrote: difficult to explain without drawing a picture, but i need to figure out future "x" values with given "y" values and also with a given line. the "y" axis = 1,000,000 100,000 1,000 100 1 0 need to figure out how to get the "x" values to fit a straight, positive sloping (45degree angle) if graphed out. sorry i can't be more clear. thanks if someone can help. also given is a straight line with a positive slope. |

Have you tried using a Logarithmic scale for the y axis
