Thank you for adding the linear trend line, however Power BI would be much more powerful with additional trend line functionality. We would love to see advanced options such as polynomial, exponential and logarithmic trend lines.
Essentially the trend line functionality from excel would be perfect

Must have
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
In addition to this, it would be useful if you could add trendlines to the combo visual (line and column/bar) for the line on the second Y-axis. I recently added a 30 day moving average line to a line and stacked column visual in power bi by using DAX measures but carrying out the same functionality in Excel is a couple of clicks (add trendline, change period to 30 days).
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
I recall this feature being added in September 2016 and I was using it as recently as March 2017. Then, sometime after that the functionality was taken out. It doesn't seem to be there in the January 2018 build. Can anyone offer insight into if/ when this feature will be reintroduced?
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
Please, please, please recreate the trend line functionality we have for charts in Excel. Would love to have a moving average or polynomial option (as would our users)!
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
The trend line option is good but it could be better ! Now it is too basic, maybe more options as "Show trend equation" and options of trend line calculation (exponential, polynomial...)

RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
I agree with this post, this would be a quick and easy fix!
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
while this is still open, I've posted a very basic version Excel-TREND-function for PBI here: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Formula-for-trendline/m-p/86449/highlight/false#M36271 (can toggle number of Intervalls, but no individual slope and intercept)
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
A lot of suggestions like this one (conditional formatting for matrices being another example) amount to requests that Microsoft make Power BI more like Excel. One has to wonder whether more effort ought to be put into making Excel work with Power BI than into duplicating Excel's features in Power BI.
RE: Advanced trend lines in charts (polynomial, exponential,...)
moving average, ability to toggle # of periods, and smoothed lines please!

KIND OF FINANCIAL TREND LINES MAY BE INCREDIBLY USEFUL LIKE MOVING AVERAGE, FORECASTING, ETC.
