Basis of calculations: historical or modelled?
Hi,
I am new to Portfolioslab. I cannot find any statement describing whether returns and heat maps of users' and lazy's portfolios are based on actual historical data, or are simply modelled on the basis of current portfolio composition.
I would greatly appreciate a clarification.
Thanks
Luca
