This doesn't sound like a very interesting chart. If all the dates are the same there will be a single point for each series, which by the way you haven't specified what this will be. Please can you clarify what it is you are trying to do here?

It usually works the other way around - you need to decide what it is you are trying to show with a chart, then you look to see if there is an appropriate chart type available, then you work out what the search should be to show you the information you want from your data.
