Several ways to do this, depending on what you want.

One would be to plot an area for max, then an area for avg, then an area in 
white for min - no stack involved. So you end up with a colour band from min to 
avg, and a different colour band from avg to max.

Another one I've used is : use a CDEF to get the difference between max and 
min, plot min in white (or transparent), then stack the CDEF on top of that, 
then draw a line for avg. I tend to use a solid colour for the line, and the 
same colour (but with a lot of transparency) for the min-max spread - that way 
the min-max spread area doesn't obliterate what's been plotted before.

So far I got this as my syntax:

rrdtool.exe graph graph.png
--title Daily ICA Port Latency
--vertical-label milliseconds
--slope-mode
--start end-1d -X 0
DEF:def_min=latency.rrd:response:MIN
DEF:def_max=latency.rrd:response:MAX
DEF:def_avg=latency.rrd:response:AVERAGE
CDEF:cdef_min=def_min,1000,/
CDEF:cdef_max=def_max,1000,/
CDEF:cdef_avg=def_avg,1000,/
VDEF:vdef_min=def_min,MINIMUM
VDEF:vdef_max=def_max,MAXIMUM
VDEF:vdef_avg=def_avg,AVERAGE
AREA:def_min#54EC48
AREA:def_max#EC9D48::STACK
AREA:def_avg#48C4EC::STACK
PRINT:vdef_min:%.2lf
PRINT:vdef_max:%.2lf
PRINT:vdef_max:%.2lf

thank you,

Thank you I got it now :) appreciate the help.

  I created the rrd file using the following parameters:
 
  rrdtool.exe create latency.rrd
  --start now
  DS:response:GAUGE:600:U:U
  RRA:MIN:0.5:12:8760
  RRA:MAX:0.5:12:8760
  RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:12:8760
 
  I am trying to update it but having problems getting the following error:
 
  ERROR: latency.rrd: found extra data on update argument: 0.40:0.88:0.73

 That's because you are offering 3 values to an RRD that's configured to
 take only one.

  I am typing the following to update the rrd file:
 
  rrdtool update latency.rrd 08/10/2015_11:33:0.40:0.88:0.73
 
  0.40 = Minimum
  0.88 = Maximum
  0.73 =  Average

 It doesn't work like that. If you want to record the min/avg/max values
 from a ping then you need to define THREE DSs, eg response_min,
 response_avg, response_max
 You can then define your RRAs as required. You cannot be selective about
 this, so you will end up with all 9 permutations of min of min, min of avg,
 min of max, avg of min, ... Only three of these (min of min, avg of avg,
 max of max) are actually useful.
