    Question Question about the chart dots on FF?

    Just wondering about the dots on my chart? Why are some solid blue and others are only outlined? I take my temps at the same time each morning etc. Just not sure why FF puts some as outlined, and they change, some days they are outlined, the next they're solid and another is outlined. Does anyone know what they mean? Very confused about that Thanks

    PZ,
    The open circles usually mean a difference in time when the temp is taken... but you said that you take it at the same time each day
    I'll check FF for you to see if there is something in the FAQ section.

    The open circles are because of something unusual happening. Did you take them temp within 1/2 an hour of the usual time? Were you drinking, sick, tired etc? All of these things can make your dots opened rather than closed. Also if you have one extremely high or low temp they will be disregarded as well & become open dots (though that's not the case here).

    Here you go....

    What do the open circles on my chart mean?
    The open circles on your chart mean that you have entered something in your data that may make those temperature points unreliable. In most cases it is the time the temperature was taken or that you entered that you were sleep deprived.

    Aha! Sleep deprived, I have entered that a fair few times, so that would make perfect sense
