JD, I don't understand your first question, as the code currently 
plots the YTD % change by default.

As for the null plot in charts without a full year's data, 
unfortunately the hindsight trick that allows for the determining of 
the last day of the previous year, also prevents any plot within the 
first three bars.  The code below takes care of the first incomplete 
year of data, starting from the fourth bar of data.

==========
Yearly RoC
==========
---8<-----------------------------

{ Yearly Rate of Change (RoC) v4.1
  Incomplete year begins on 4th data bar.
