Splunk Search

Line graph by instance and time

Hello, 

I have the below Splunk search and I want to put the results into a line graph so I can compare all of the disk instances e.g. C, D , F over a period of time. 

The search that I am using is: 

index=windows_perfmon eventtype="perfmon_windows" Host="XXXX" object="LogicalDisk" counter="% Disk Write Time" instance="*" AND NOT instance=_Total AND NOT instance=Hard* | stats latest(Value) as Value by _time, instance | eval Value=round(Value, 2)

Any advise as I would like to create this in a line graph visualisation with the instances on different lines so you can do trend analysis on the Disk Write Time.  

The results I am getting are: 

_time instance value

Use timechart

index=windows_perfmon eventtype="perfmon_windows" Host="XXXX" object="LogicalDisk" counter="% Disk Write Time" instance="*" AND NOT instance=_Total AND NOT instance=Hard* 
| timechart latest(Value) as Value by instance 
| foreach * [ eval "<<FIELD>>"=round('<<FIELD>>', 2) ]
