A simple correlation % would suffice.

I love the new feature to show trend lines on charts. Thanks!

The only thing it's missing is the option of displaying the R2 value and/or or the fit line equation. Even if the equation couldn't be displayed on the report, it would be nice to be able to see what it is.

This would be extremely helpful. Any basic measure of correlation strength would be so helpful.
