<summary>What does the “daily reference” mean in practice?</summary>

<summary>Why is my 1Y ROI not exactly year-over-year on some symbols?</summary>

For instruments without seven-day trading, “365 daily bars” can cover more than 365 calendar days. The benefit is TF-consistency; if you need strict calendar math, set a custom days value appropriate for that market.

<summary>How should I choose the right window?</summary>

Match the window to the decision you’re making: 1M for tactical momentum, 3–6M for rotation, 1Y for business-cycle context. Keep it consistent across comparisons.
