Does anyone know how to display a bar where a negative value would colourize the green (left side) and a positive value would colourize the red (right side) ? Center point of the bar would be zero in this case.

Kind of. You want a [Bar gauge visualization](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/panels/visualizations/bar-gauge-panel/) with [Thresholds](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/panels/thresholds/) set in the Field tab.

Bar gauge is a big weird, because the lowest number will be the start point. Below is an example, though the values don’t quite match what you are looking for.

I’m facing the same problem and looking for the solution.  
Anyone know the solution?
