- How to forecast quickly using trendlines
Forecasting is integral to business success but it can be frustrating when you don’t have the right tools. Fortunately Excel gives you the ability to forecast quickly without cracking your head with complex mathematical models using trendlines.
When you have existing data for which you want to forecast a trend, you can create a trendline in a chart. For example, if you have a chart in Excel that shows sales data for the first few months of the year, you can add a trendline to the chart that shows the general trend of sales (increasing or decreasing or flat) or that shows the projected trend for months ahead.
