How do you set up a timechart with multiple rows?

I am trying to setup a timechart and I am a beginner in Splunk. I'd like to show a timechart with two rows, i.e., two sets of data for a week).

I have below query:

index=myindx "Box Sales Job:" "Total number of boxes sold" earliest=-7d@d latest=@d  | rex field=_raw "Total number of boxes sold:(?<BoxCount>.+) for (?<BoxType>.+)" | table BoxType, BoxCount, _time

that produces

+---------+----------+-------------------------+
| BoxType | BoxCount |          _time          |
+---------+----------+-------------------------+
| Small   |       45 | 2018-08-28 16:27:35.649 |
| Small   |       17 | 2018-08-28 13:27:35.649 |
| Large   |       65 | 2018-08-28 16:27:34.142 |
| Large   |       10 | 2018-08-28 13:27:34.142 |
| Small   |       66 | 2018-08-24 16:59:55.100 |
| Large   |       12 | 2018-08-24 16:59:54.288 |
| Small   |       60 | 2018-08-24 09:38:01.101 |
| Large   |       12 | 2018-08-24 09:38:00.373 |
| Small   |       45 | 2018-08-27 16:44:28.652 |
| Large   |       56 | 2018-08-27 16:44:28.168 |
| Small   |       12 | 2018-08-25 16:31:32.386 |
| Large   |       34 | 2018-08-25 16:31:31.931 |
| Small   |       98 | 2018-08-23 16:33:43.708 |
| Large   |       12 | 2018-08-23 16:33:43.092 |

What I am trying to show is such as below: Please note box sales happened twice on 28th.

 +---------+----------+-------------------------+
| Box   | 7days_before | 6days_before | 5days_before | 4days_before | 3days_before | 2days_before | 1days_before | latest |
|-------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------------|--------|
| Small | 45           | 49           | 98           | 12           | 45           | 60           | 66           | 45     |
| Large | 75           | 11           | 12           | 34           | 56           | 12           | 12           | 65     |
| Small | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 17     |
| Large | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 0            | 10     |

I tried below query and a couple other ways.

index=myidx "Box Sales Job:" "Total number of boxes sold" earliest=-7d@d latest=@d  | rex field=_raw "Total number of boxes sold:(?<BoxCount>.+) for (?<BoxType>.+)" | table BoxType, BoxCount, _time |  timechart span=24h count | timewrap 1d

but it ends up showing the count of rows rather than the desired format. I am not sure what am I missing. Any ideas?

Can you try the below? I haven`t tested it though.

index=myidx "Box Sales Job:" "Total number of boxes sold" earliest=-7d@d latest=@d
| rex field=_raw "Total number of boxes sold:(?.+) for (?.+)"
| table BoxType, BoxCount, _time
| timechart span=1d sum(BoxCount) As BoxCount by BoxType

It works. However I had to report each days sales separately instead of summing it up (to know if this job runs twice). So I made a change in timechart as
timechart span=24h values(NachaCount) by NachaType
Thank you!
