With Timelion, is there a way to dynamically plot the maximum value of a series within a given timezone?

For example, say I have plotted a series with this data:  
08/01 - 20  
08/02 - 30  
08/03 - 32  
08/04 -20

On the same chart, I would want a line with the max (32) spanning across the chart.

I would want this max to be dynamically charted as the values or my datetime range changes. Is this possible with the current functions?

You can do it with mathlion plugin.  
You can then ask to parse a mathematical function 'max' on all your data.  
[http://mathlion.docs.fermiumlabs.com/en/latest/](http://mathlion.docs.fermiumlabs.com/en/latest/)  
it would look like this :

> .es().math("max(source)")
