What is a continuous plot?
a chart that shows a continuous curve rather than discrete points

What does continuous refer to here?
refers to the curve of the plot (chart)

What does rolling refer to here?

shall be plotted continuously


Explanation:
The kEx of the rolling 30 piece shall be plotted continuously; i.e., the resultant plot shall be a continuous curve rather than discrete points.
