Compare FAQ

What does the V vs MA overlay show?
LOPJLB overlays V vs MA as total return (dividends and splits) from the first adjusted close in the selected 5Y window. Each path starts at 0% so you can read relative holding performance, not raw tape price.
Is this holding return or tape close?
Holding return. The series uses split- and dividend-adjusted close (Yahoo-style backward adjustment) when dividend coverage is sufficient, otherwise it falls back to tape close. Candles and technical overlays on /chart stay tape.
Which windows are public?
Public visitors can share 1M, 3M, 6M, YTD, 1Y, and 5Y. MAX is Research+. Direction and regime in the table follow the desk ladder: SPY25 on Free, full book on Essential+.
How do I read the drawdown, period, and annual tables?
Drawdowns are current and worst peak-to-trough on the visible range. Periods are calendar lookbacks (1Y / 2Y / 3Y / 5Y, plus 10Y on MAX) from the last bar. Annual is calendar-year holding return, with the latest year labeled YTD.
How has V vs MA performed on a normalized basis?
V vs MA holding-return overlay: 5Y V +72.19% · MA +73.05%; worst drawdown V -24.13% · MA -28.25%; YTD V +8.90% · MA +3.36%. Numbers update from the live compare-series book.
Is ticker compare investment advice?
No. The overlay is research context only — not a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
