How to find the remove the decimal places of an 2 averages and display each field as a bar on a bar chart

For the following data,

Date=4 June 2013, Result=Win,Ticks=11,Setup=Range Fade, Risk=10, Target=11
.....and more

I would like to find the average for the Risk and Target fields each and to remove the decimal places. I have written the following query:
source="Trading Stats.txt" | search Risk | search Target | stats avg(Risk) as average_risk avg(Target) as average_target
which can display the average of each of the Risk and Target fields but I am unable to get the round function to work.

In addition, I would also like to show the data on a bar chart with the average value of the Risk field as 1 bar and the average value of the Target field as the second bar on the same chart.

How do I do so?

Thanks

Try this for rounding and charting:

source="Trading Stats.txt" Risk=* Target=* | chart avg(Risk) as average_risk avg(Target) as average_target by source | eval average_risk = round(average_risk) | eval average_target = round(average_target)

That should give you one row of results with three columns, which can be displayed in a chart - just click the chart button and select bar chart or whatever you need. Note the by source bit, serving as one of the axes of the chart.

The second argument is optional, implied zero.

round takes 2 arguments eval average_risk = round(average_risk,2) | eval average_target = round(average_target,2)
