What the Chart Shows
The sales chart plots your revenue and/or profit over the selected date range. Each point on the chart represents sales activity in that time slice — whether that’s days, weeks, or months depending on your date range.
Reading the Chart
- Blue line — Revenue over time
- Green line — Gross profit over time
- Peaks — High-volume selling periods
- Flat sections — Periods with no or low sales activity
- Drops — Fewer sales or lower-priced sales than surrounding periods
Hover over any point on the chart to see the exact revenue and profit numbers for that date.
How the Time Axis Works
The chart automatically adjusts its granularity based on your date range:
| Date Range | Chart Shows |
|---|
| Up to 30 days | Daily data points |
| 1–3 months | Weekly data points |
| 3+ months | Monthly data points |
What to Look For
Consistent revenue: A relatively steady line means consistent selling activity — a sign of a healthy, active business.
Spikes: Big spikes usually correspond to a specific event — a drop you copped and flipped quickly, a bulk sale, or a hot item.
Long flat periods: If the chart is flat for weeks, you haven’t been logging sales. Either activity was genuinely slow, or you need to catch up on recording sales.
Revenue and profit diverging: If revenue is climbing but profit isn’t growing at the same rate, your margins are shrinking. Check whether your costs are up or your sell-through prices are down.
Adjusting the Date Range
Use the date picker to zoom in or out. View an entire year to see seasonal patterns, or zoom into a single month to see day-by-day activity around a specific event.
Compare the same period year-over-year using custom date ranges to see if your business is growing. Set one range to Jan–May 2025 and another to Jan–May 2026 and compare the chart peaks.
