    X axis which is dates but not linear

    Hi all. I have attached a chart. As you can see the chart doesnt make any sense given the data! Why on earth does it pivot like that and why does it extend the dates to 2016?
    If anyone knows how to fix it would be very appreciated!
    thanks very much

    Hi,

    Format the axis type as 'Text'
