Compounded price return for every calendar month on record. Read down a column for seasonality, across a row for the year's rhythm.
Cardano's grid captures a full arc: the ferocious run into its September 2021 peak, and the long, grinding descent that followed — one of the most persistent bleed patterns among large caps. Reading ADA's rows top to bottom, the eye catches how the character of the market changed: early years dense with saturated green columns, later years dominated by shallow reds that compound quietly into deeply negative yearly totals.
That makes ADA a useful illustration of compounding's asymmetry, which the Yearly tab lays bare: a row of mild-looking −5% to −15% months stacks into a year that needs a triple-digit rally to reclaim. The up-month counter on each yearly row (how many of twelve months closed green) is the quickest summary of that grind.
Compounding. A sequence of moderate negative months multiplies into a large annual loss even without any single crash month. The loss/gain bars and totals on the Yearly tab make that arithmetic visible.
At ADA's first daily perpetual-futures candle on Binance in early 2020. All medians and aggregates are computed from that starting point.
