hi @Lorenz_Bucago

welcome to the Kibana community.  
To clarify, you want to show a label with the point value on top of each data point in the chart?

Probably a table would be a better place to show them instead of the chart.  
You could also put the line chart next to a table within a dashboard, to provide both a trend overview (Line chart) with the detailed view (Table).
