# FAQs

Multi-Asset Monthly Returns Heatmap FAQs

<details>

<summary><strong>Why is the heatmap not loading or showing a timeframe error?</strong></summary>

The indicator requires your chart to be set to the 1M (Monthly) timeframe to accurately pull and calculate the monthly data for all 28 assets. Please switch your chart to the 1M timeframe.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Can I change the assets displayed in the heatmap?</strong></summary>

Yes, all 28 assets are fully customizable. You can change the ticker symbol and the display name for each slot in the indicator's settings menu.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>What does the "Calc Mode" setting do?</strong></summary>

The Calc Mode determines which statistical metric is calculated and displayed for each month. For example, "Mean" shows the average historical return for that month, while "Max" shows the single highest return ever recorded for that month.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Why do the color intensities change when I switch Calc Modes?</strong></summary>

The indicator features dynamic heatmap scaling. Because different metrics have different typical ranges (e.g., the 'Sum' of all returns will be much larger than the 'Mean'), the indicator automatically adjusts its color intensity thresholds so the heatmap remains visually readable and useful.

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Does this indicator slow down TradingView?</strong></summary>

Because it pulls historical data for up to 28 different assets simultaneously and performs complex statistical calculations, it can take a moment to load upon initial application or when changing settings. This is normal and expected behavior for heavy data-aggregation scripts.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.candelacharts.com/investing/risk-adjusted-performance/multi-asset-monthly-returns-heatmap/faqs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
