This use case is not clear.  You have a table and want to make a line graph?  Do you want to highlight the anomalous values or select them?

If you know you only want values greater than 5 then a where clause should do the job.

,,, | where myField > 5

If you don't know what the threshold value should be then consider the anomalousvalue command.

... | anomalousvalue action=filter myField

Do tell us more about the use so we can offer better answers.

and I am using this query

..... | bucket _time span=10m

| chart count by _time,country

and I got the result as shown below

now when I convert it into a graph I wanted to highlight pints that are greater than 5 and also to filterout those points.

thankyou, that worked but first I need to show the graph for all the data then highlight the points greater then 5 and then filter out those points.

this worked well for filtering but I need to highlight them also

A graph is a visualisation of a table of data.

You can have a table with all the data and you can have another table with the filtered data - the visualisation isn't normally going to change from one table to the other.

In the graph with all the data I need to highlight only the points that are greater than 5 is it possible?

This is not possible with standard graphs (as far as I am aware) - having said that, you could overlay a line at 5 so that it is obvious which point are above it

But I am using dashboard studio and I think overlay is not possible in it can you please conform

I don't use Dashboard Studio due to such limitations!

If you are already using a line graph, it could just be another series in the table

| bin _time span=10m
| stats count by _time country
| where count > 5
| xyseries _time country count
| eval threshold=5
