You can now chart the election: Trump vs. Biden

12 Eki 2020

Type US:BIDEN or US:TRUMP into the search box to chart election results. This data is now available to all TradingView members. You can add indicators, symbols, and drawings to your election charts just as you would on any other chart. Look for correlations, new insights or study polling results as they come in. 🇺🇸

In this example, we've highlighted two big moves for Trump and Biden that occurred after the first debate in late September. Biden seemed to breakout while Trump hit a peak. Of course, polling results do not always tell the full story. The 2016 general election demonstrated how polls don't always tell the full story. Nonetheless, it's interesting to see how the polls might move markets in the short term. Here are some ideas you can research yourself:

1. Trump vs. energy ETF XLE: energy stocks have been getting demolished since the first debate.
2. Biden vs. solar ETF TAN: solar stocks have been climbing since the first debate.
3. General election vs. Nasdaq-100: big tech, as measured by the QQQ ETF, is up over 6% since the first debate.
4. General election vs. crypto: do crypto markets care who wins? Are they immune to election results?
