Why is my addPoint() not recognized as a function in my highcharts code?
Question
I am working with Highcharts and live data. I have my ajax all set up properly it seems and have a setTimeout called to bring in live data. Whenever that data comes in I want to addPoint() to my series and draw the new graph (shifting to the left). Below is my code, line 85 is the .addPoint call but you will see in the console that it is showing as not a function or undefined.
I know from the console as well that I am a calling my data correctly from my chart (chart1.data.series[0] returns and object). Here is the highcharts documentation on series data and addPoint : < http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#Series.addPoint >
Any idea where I went wrong? I am new to js 1 year <. so I appreciate all your help!

You should use reference to chart and then call addPoint, instead of refer to chart configuration object.
Correct form: chart.series[0].addPoint()
