# Trends
Trends show you the '% change' up or down, on all of the data tables we have within the platform. \
The comparisons will always be made ***against the same period you are measuring***.\
\
For example; if you have 'last 30 days' as the date ange set on the picker - you will be comparing the most recent 30 days, against the 30 days prior to that.\
\
If you are selecting 'last quarter', you will be comparing against the quarter prior to that - etc.\
\
If you would prefer to switch this feature off, you can do so by checking/unchecking the box labelled 'show trends' available on most of the screens with data tables.\
