A goal line in a Simana chart is an addition you can add which shows a target or marker for what is considered noteworthy for your data. It can help compare actual performance against an expected target, or show how high or low values should be.
To avoid confusion, you can use clarifying labels to describe how to interpret the goal line. For example, instead of using the word "goal", you could use "maximum" or "upper limit". You could also expand the word "goal" to include more information, such as "Goal: below 90 days".
