Describing chart






I would like to explain what happen in Sept-Nov. Is it ok like this?

The sales rose to 135 in September only to slip back to 130 again in October, a downward trend that continued in November.

According to your graph, July was the month with the highest sales figures. Sales fell in August, but they rose slightly in September. I would mention that fact by saying something like: Compared with August, sales rose slightly to 135 in September then turned downward in October, November and December.
