Shade under a line

[Juan Carlos]

Hello,

I am try making a time series chart and my goal is to shade all what is below the line. I would think I would have to use scatteri for what I want, but I don't know how to tell stata that. I attach an image (very ugly) to give you an idea.

Greetings and thanks guys

Thank you very much for your answer, it was very useful, however when I plot, when I want to edit the line, all the contour is marked, and my goal is only to keep the top one. Can I delete the other lines?

I attach the graph I made and what I want to delete.

Thank you!!!

Ohhh woowww!!!! Thank you so much, I was up all night trying to do this and had no idea how to go about it.

Thank you Bjarte Aagnes and Andrew Musau. I will see if this last thing you share with me I can add it with what I already had previously.
