Your idea is a good one for sure. The only problem is that if I show a twenty year equity curve (a data set that most in this forum deem a minimum), the scale would make the first 4-5 yrs appear flat, unless a logarithmic illustration is used, whereby the lake would be meaningless, at least visually...
