Hello ,everyone I have a situation where i need to plot the scatter plot which is parallel to y axis.  
I am in search for keyword which can reverse the axis for that specific trace.

Note i have another traces in the graph which should take the axes as it is,no reversing.

Something like this.You can see a vertical line in very left.Thats what i want to plot.
