TrendLine

Trend lines are straight lines indicating trends, might also be used for some different purposes. Can be used by Serial and XY charts. To add/remove trend line, use chart.addTrendLine(trendLine)/chart.removeTrendLine(trendLine) methods or simply pass array of trend lines: chart.trendLines = [trendLine1, trendLine2]

Example:

var trendLine = new AmCharts.TrendLine();
trendLine.initialDate = new Date(2012, 0, 2, 12); // 12 is hour - to start trend line in the middle of the day
trendLine.finalDate = new Date(2012, 0, 11, 12);
trendLine.initialValue = 10;
trendLine.finalValue = 19;
trendLine.lineColor = "#CC0000";
chart.addTrendLine(trendLine);
