I currently have my chart set up like so :

enter image description here

How can I change the order so that it is read from left to right?

Right now it goes from recent date to last date. When I Reverse Categories, it also shifts the Y Axis to the right hand side, I want to keep the Y axis on the left.

You right click on the axis itself, and select format axis, or you can simply double click the axis depending on your version.

Then look for the setting categories in reverse order, click this box.

See image below.

I don't think there is an option to reverse the order AND keep the Y-axis on the left, apart from re-arranging your actual data set from which you plot the series
