Using the pivot table tool of QuantShare, I have created a table that shows the average daily return of a security per month and per year. The table displays years as rows and months as columns and calculates the average daily return for every cell (year/month). The daily return is calculated using the open and close prices (The intraday percentage change from open to close). A cell is colored in red when the average daily profit is negative and it is colored in green when the average daily profit is positive.
Above the table, you can change the active symbol to refresh the table.
You can also perform calculations based on the active trading chart (each time you change a chart or chart's symbol the table will be updated automatically):
- Right click on the pivot table
- Select "Active Symbol Settings"
- Select "Active Chart Symbol"
Note that to add this pivot table, you must first open or create a new dashboard (Tools -> Dashboard). After that, right click on the Dashboard to add the pivot table.
To update the analysis period, right click on the pivot table, select "Update Rows/Columns/Values", update the start and end dates in the "Select Dates" panel.
Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
