    Angry non linear shading

    I would like to put a shade area between my data sets, I plotted them using scattered plot and add polynomial trend line. These trend lines do not
    cross, I need to draw a shade area between the polynomial line with max height and line with min height to show variation of my data sets.

    I appreciate your help.

    Re: non linear shading

    To do the shading you need to use 2 additional series plotted as stacked area.
    The first area will match the lower trendline. The second will be the distance between the trendlines.

    The tough part is generating a set of data for the area series based on your trendline formula.

    Using Linest will give you the components of the equation.
