How to add trend to event counts?

I have the below search which shows 3 columns....the field1, index list and count of events. How can I add a trend line or a spark line to show if the event count is increasing or decreasing.

| tstats count by index 
| join index type=inner 
| inputlookup LookUp1 
| eval index=lower(index) 
| table field1,index,count 
| sort field1 asc] 
| stats list(index) as index, sum(count) as count by field1

For a sparkline try:

| tstats count by index 
| join index type=inner 
[| inputlookup LookUp1 
| eval index=lower(index) 
| table field1,index,count 
| sort field1 asc] 
| stats list(index) as index, sum(count) as count, sparkline(sum(count)) as trend by field1

Let me know if that helps.

I tried this before but for the sparkline it shows a flat line with 0 value all across.
