It might be a silly a question but I've a simple problem in generating a mean variable. In this dataset:

If the firm belongs to t_matched==0 the firm doesn't receive the treatment in event_time==0.
On the other hand, if the firm belongs to t_matched==1, the firm receive the treatment in event_time==0.
Event time goes to -5+4 indicating the months before and after the treatment.
My final objective: a graph with Y axis trn and X axis the event_time. I'm expecting that, visually, there are differences in the trn for the treated and control group in the event_time=0. So the graph should include two lines trend (for treated and control group)
In order to do so, I guess I firslty need a variable that calculates the average trn of all the firm belonging to each group by each months of the event_time.
Nevertheless I'm struggling on how to implement it and then reporting the graph.
I did many attempts that I didn't post just to avoid further confusion.
Do you have any helps/suggestion?
Many thanks, as always, for your time
