Graph YTD

[trymok]

Hi,

I would like to graph a series to make the graph look like the following:

I have a series with monthly data, and I want the Y-axis to show the deficit, while the x-axis consists of months. It will then be easy to compare how the development have been between two years YTD.

Has anyone done something like this before?

Best,

Trym

Just lag or lead one of the series to line up the observations.
