I want to create a timelion graph
one line to show the current count & the second line to show the previous days count.
is this possible to do?
I am currently using this for my current day line:
`.es(q='Completion.keyword:complete',index=logstash,metric=count,timefield=time_stamp).cusum().label(ActualVolume).color(Blue)`

Hey @ek9boy, you can use an offset to compare the data from the previous day: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/timelion.html#time-series-compare-data](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/timelion.html#time-series-compare-data)
