In order to display the values like that you need to go to your Index Pattern, select the field that you are doing the metric on (if it's count, you can't do it on count), and change it's formatting to Number and add `a` at the end of the format. Default is `0,0.[000]` so yours should be `0,0.[000]a`

1. The trend mark isn't available like that. You can achieve something similar with a serial diff metric alongside that can be colored as red if negative and green if positive. Without the arrow though.
2. You can do that with Vega as well, I think, but I don't know it off the top of my head, but the format way is easier.
