How it works

Composite methodology

The regime classification combines three signals across the top-100 HL perpetuals on the 4h timeframe:

  • Breadth — share of the cohort posting a positive return over the period. High breadth means money is flowing into many names, not just a few.
  • Aggregate volatility — mean of each asset’s normalized-ATR percentile. High = elevated cohort volatility.
  • Aggregate funding — mean hourly funding rate across the cohort, in basis points. Positive = longs crowded; negative = shorts crowded.

The classification logic:

Risk-on:  breadth > 60%  AND  aggFunding < 0 bps
Risk-off: breadth < 40%  AND  aggFunding > 5 bps
Mixed:    anything in between

The boundaries are intentionally conservative — most days are “Mixed.” The pure Risk-on / Risk-off labels fire only when both breadth and positioning agree, which is the configuration most predictive of regime persistence.

Not financial advice. The regime label is a signal among many. Backtest any strategy across regimes before assuming a single regime is best for your edge — Keel exposes a regime tag in every backtest run for exactly this purpose.

FAQ

Regime — questions

What does the regime indicator measure?

A composite of three cohort-wide signals from the top-100 HL universe: (1) breadth — what % of assets are positive on the period, (2) aggregate volatility — mean of cohort NATR percentiles, (3) aggregate funding — mean funding rate across the cohort in basis points. Combined, they characterize whether the market is broadly bid (Risk-on), broadly stressed (Risk-off), or somewhere in between (Mixed).

What's the difference between Risk-on, Mixed, and Risk-off?

Risk-on: breadth >60% AND aggregate funding <0bps — most assets up, longs not crowded, traders willing to take risk. Risk-off: breadth <40% AND aggregate funding >5bps — most assets down with longs paying heavy funding, signaling stress and crowded positioning. Mixed: anything in between — the most common state, indicates indecision.

How often does the regime update?

Refreshes every page request (server-rendered). The underlying data refreshes hourly on the 4h-timeframe snapshot. So the regime label shifts only when the underlying composite shifts, typically once per hour at the boundaries.

Should I trade differently based on regime?

Not financial advice, but a common framework: in Risk-on, trend-following and breakout strategies tend to work better; in Risk-off, mean-reversion and short-bias setups can outperform; Mixed regimes are the hardest — most strategies underperform. Backtest your strategy across regimes (Keel exposes a regime tag in every backtest run) before assuming a single regime is "best" for your edge.

Why no historical chart yet?

The current readout uses the live snapshot; producing a 90-day history requires a historical-snapshot data path that lab-api doesn't yet expose. The chart is a Sprint 4 candidate — see projects/seo-tools/sprints/sprint-3.md §6 deferred enhancements for the trigger.
