Trends and the projection
Solid points are uploaded weeks; the gray tail is a straight-line projection.
Each trend chart shows one scorecard column by week, then four projected weeks.
Steps
- Read the solid line first. That is what happened.
- The projection fits a line through the last eight uploaded weeks and extends it four weeks.
- A steep projection after a strong month says the last eight weeks were strong, nothing more.
- With fewer than three uploaded weeks it repeats the last value.
Good to know
- The method is written under the heading; hover it.
- Use the projection to catch a slide early, not as a target.
