That looks more like exponential growth. If it was a parabola, it is too blunted near x = 0. Exponential growth functions are used when you have a growth rate like interest or population growth and they follow a power low function where each successive step is actually a multiplication of a common factor.
HOLY SHIT I"VE BEEN LOOKING AT IT ALL WRONG THIS IS WAY WORSE THAN I THOUGHT.
Yeah, parabolic is when things dip and return to true price. You don't see this much outside of genuine price fixing.
Exponential is certainly what you're looking at.
I don't see the point in hiding the chart, though. This isn't /biz/, where everyone is paranoid and afraid to look like a shill.
You mean the numbers on the edges? I thought the parabola exponential growth function could speak for itself, to those who recognize it.
Try to correlate the curve and determine the rate of exposure. The function will look like:
y = (1 + r)n
Where: n = number of growth cycles, and r = a growth rate in %
Starting to look familiar.
