An Excel Bar chart type shows horizontal bars.

For time sequence data the usual approach is to show time on the horizontal
axis.

Some appropriate Excel chart types are Column (vertical bars), Line, and XY
(Scatter).

My personal preference for time sequence data is Line or XY (Scatter),
formatted with lines connecting the markers.
