Hi there, While your two data series differ slightly in their range of values (93-103 and 100-123) you are still plotting them on the same chart which has a single y-axis range. As such, you need to make your data scaling parameter (CHDS) match your y-axis range (CHXR=1,...).

Sorry, I was not very clear in my first message... Change your CHDS parameter to read chds=93,123 instead of chds=93,103,100,123 That will tell the API to treat 93 as the bottom of the chart and 123 as the top of the chart **for both data series**. Here's a link with the CHDS parameter change:
