Perfometer
The Perfometer consists of two semi-circular gauges, volatility and return, and a weather icon.
To the right are the return and volatility of the instrument against the index, with the relative differences highlighted.
Return:
The performance of the selected portfolio is illustrated by the outer gauge, graduated from red to green, which is displayed when you hover the cursor over it.
The centre, or midpoint, represents the index. Thus, if the outperformance is high, the indicator will be positioned on the right and will be green. Conversely, if the underperformance is significant, the cursor will be positioned on the left and will be red.
Volatility:
The risk of the index is represented by the inner gauge, graduated from blue to red, which is displayed when you hover over it.
Midday is the reference point for the index, so any volatility below the index will be blue (cold) on the left, and any excess volatility will be red (hot) on the right.
Weather:
In the centre of the performance meter, when you hover over the weather icon, the relative performance and return of the benchmark adjusted for the volatility of the reference instrument are displayed.
