Annual Lump Sum: Yearly & Compounded
Annual Lump Sum Investment Analyzer (Yearly vs. Compounded)
Overview
This Pine Script indicator simulates a disciplined "Lump Sum" investing strategy. It calculates the performance of buying a fixed dollar amount (e.g., $10,000) on the very first trading day of every year and holding it indefinitely.
Unlike standard backtesters that only show a total percentage, this tool breaks down performance by "Vintage" (the year of purchase), allowing you to see which specific years contributed most to your wealth.
Key Features
Automated Execution: Automatically detects the first trading bar of every new year to simulate a buy.
Dual-Yield Analysis: The table provides two distinct ways to view returns:
Yearly %: How the market performed specifically during that calendar year (Jan 1 to Dec 31).
Compounded %: The total return of that specific year's investment from the moment it was bought until today.
Live Updates: For the current year, the "End Price" and "Yields" update in real-time with market movements.
Portfolio Summary: Displays your Total Invested Capital vs. Total Current Value at the top of the table.
Table Column Breakdown
The dashboard in the bottom-right corner displays the following:
Year: The vintage year of the investment.
Buy Price: The price of the asset on the first trading day of that year.
End Price: The price on the last trading day of that year (or the current price if the year is still active).
Yearly %: The isolated performance of that specific calendar year. (Green = The market ended the year higher than it started).
Compounded %: The "Diamond Hands" return. This shows how much that specific $10,000 tranche is up (or down) right now relative to the current price.
How to Use
Add the script to your chart.
Crucial: Set your chart timeframe to Daily (D). This ensures the script correctly identifies the first trading day of the year.
Open the Settings (Inputs) to adjust:
Annual Investment Amount: Default is $10,000.
Table Size: Adjust text size (Tiny, Small, Normal, Large).
Max Rows: Limit how many historical years are shown to keep the chart clean.
Use Case
This tool is perfect for investors who want to visualize the power of long-term holding. It allows you to see that even if a specific year had a bad "Yearly Yield" (e.g., buying in 2008), the "Compounded Yield" might still be massive today due to time in the market.
