- Beta Convexity
How Closelooknet Measures It Closelooknet's market-structure toolbox computes up-beta and down-beta per name against SPY as the benchmark, reporting the convexity gap alongside other structural metrics such as drawdown behavior.
- Bollinger Coiling: When Volatility Compresses Before Expanding
Coils in the macro basket — particularly in SPY, QQQ, and TLT — are disproportionately informative.
- Cascade Tracker: The 5-Domino Model of Regime Breakdown
If pairs break out-of-order (say, TLT-SPY before QQQ-SPY), it signals something unusual about the stress source — rate-driven rather than risk-appetite-driven, for example.
- Cointegration: When the Rules of the Game Change
The SPY/GLD relationship, the equity-bond correlation, the gold-dollar inverse — these are the structural assumptions that underpin portfolio construction.
- Hurst Exponent: Persistence, Mean-Reversion, or Random Walk
For a pair like SPY-GLD, the spread's Hurst tells you whether the current market is treating the relationship as a mean-reverting equilibrium (healthy) or as a trending divergence (breaking).
- Money Temperature: Measuring Regime Intensity, Not Predicting Direction
The practical value comes from cross-reading: when SPY reads 72 and TLT reads 25, that configuration has a name, a history, and actionable implications.
