Up and down capture

What share of the market's rises — and of its falls — you took.

How it is computed here

The chained return on the days the index rose, over the index's own return on those same days; and the mirror image for its falling days.

Worked example

This one compares the portfolio with an index you choose, and the demo portfolio has none set — so there is no honest example to show here. On your own portfolio, choose a benchmark on the dashboard and it appears.
