average calculation

sourcetype="MATIZ" host=A OR host=B or host=C
| base search
| timechart span=1d eval(round(avg(response_time),2)) by host

with a search preset for 'last 30 days'

Our system comprises of three hosts. Using the above query gives me average response_time by each host. But I don't want that.
I want the visualization of simple moving average of response time of the entire system as a whole, not by each host.

A Trendline would help.

Need assistance here.
Thank you.

you can try and remove you by host clause to get the "system as a whole" or use a function that present your idea of "system as a whole"
