    I am slightly confused on this post. You are comparing the XLF to the S&P correct? If that is true then where is the price of the S&P? The orange ma is not the S&P price correct? So how are you comparing?? Or maybe I am missing something here 🙁

    It is a chart of the financial sector divided by the S&P 500. When the chart is going up, the financial sector is outperforming the S&P 500 on a percentage basis, and when the chart is going down, the financial sector is underperforming on a percentage basis.
