Worked nicely! For cases like mine (data coming from logstash) perhaps docs could add a line or two regarding index to be used in watches!

Thanks.

[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/watcher/current/watching-time-series-data.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/watcher/current/watching-time-series-data.html)

Thx for the feedback
