Every session since 2016. Height is where the day’s direction sat in its own ten-year range; colour is that day’s mood. The last bar is today.
Seven readings. The same seven, every day, in this order.
Each one asks a plain question of today and answers it against the market’s own last ten years. The strip is those ten years laid end to end; the raised band is the middle half of its days, and the line is today.

A sector is only ever ranked against other sectors.
Never against an index it sits inside, because a part measured against its own whole always looks like the whole.
