I have tried unsuccessfully to use the Excel 2010 Histogram add-in to create the chart depicted above. The chart is a great way to visualize volatility.
Please advise if you can help - much appreciated!
This Investopedia S&P Histogram Chart (Page 2) As the chart illustrates, the use of a histogram allows investors to determine the percent of time in which the performance of an investment is within, above, or below a given range. For example, 16% of the S&P 500 Index performance observations achieved a return between 9% and 11.7%. In terms of performance below or above a threshold, it can also be determined that the S&P 500 Index experienced a loss greater than or equal to 1.1%, 16% of the time, and performance above 24.8%, 7.7% of the time.
