Hi,

I'm trying to display two line charts with timelion and I need some help with the expression. One with 2015 data and the other with 2016 data.

This is what I'm doing, I think that I need to use 'offset' argument to get this right, but maybe I'm going about this all wrong?

```
.quandl('CHRIS/CME_CL1', offset=-1y), .quandl('CHRIS/CME_CL1')
```

okay I got this working, but now I would like to see the 1year offset plus what the chart was like for the rest of the year in 2015. Is this possible?
