๐ Seasonality โ Close Price by Year
Each line is one calendar year's close price (or % change from that year's first trading
day, in "% from Jan 1" mode), aligned by month/day so the same point in the calendar lines
up across years. Most recent year is drawn thicker. Click a year in the legend to hide/show it.
From 2019-09-19 to 2026-10-09 (1,766 trading days), $1 invested

it ignores transaction costs and slippage.
