Go unchanging?

Hi,
When I am describing a stable trend in a graph can I say: this trend goes or stays unchanging? Does go collocate with unchanging?

Thank you.
"Goes" implies movement, Ray Ray, so I wouldn't use it before "unchanging" because those words seem somewhat contradictory to me.

I'd probably say that the trend doesn't change. "Remains/stays unchanging" seems okay to me if you want to emphasize that the trend does not change for some length of time.
Thank you owlman 5. great help
It would be useful to know if the trend is f(x), f(nx) or f(xn) but to me, goes, stays, and unchanging are not particularly idiomatic when describing a trend in a graph.

For f(x), f(nx) "continues unchanged" could work.
