Market Overview

Condenses cross-asset and macro series into market regime, short-horizon forecast, anomalies and risk appetite.

Active · experimentalWeekdaysMarkets · monitoring
Regime, S&P 500 forecast, cross-asset anomalies and risk-on/risk-off.
1 · In one sentence

Four cards show what is happening, how unusual it is and how the forecast has performed over time.

2 · Why it exists

Make a broad cross-asset picture readable without hiding uncertainty or baseline comparisons.

3 · What it produces

Regime, S&P 500 forecast, cross-asset anomalies and risk-on/risk-off.

How to read the latest output: The regime summarises current conditions; it is not a trading instruction. Directional probability should be read with track record and expected move.

Controls

Freshness, market calendar, model-baseline comparison, forecast history and duplicate guards.

8 · Results and metrics

Results and metrics

Directional accuracy, average move, errors, period stability and baseline comparison.

9 · Limits

Limits

Unstable relationships, unseen shocks and the risk of over-simplifying heterogeneous conditions.

Possible applications of the pattern

Cross-source radar and regimes

Possible applications: monitoring KPI portfolios, recurring conditions and anomalies in operating contexts. Classifications should support review rather than automate decisions.

Transferable components

  • market calendars and cross-asset series
  • risk and breadth features
  • regime and anomaly detection
  • state and forecast history

Research questions

  • regime stability
  • anomaly precision
  • baseline comparison
  • cross-source drift

Workflow technical dossier

IMPLEMENTEDDescribes behaviour present in the workflow.EXTENSIONIndicates a possible check or evolution, not an operating feature.

Implementation detail and assessment criteria.

This section connects the visible output to data-engineering, modelling, validation and delivery choices present in the repository.

Architecture and data

  • Cross-asset series aligned to market calendars with the date of the latest valid observation.
  • A shared feature matrix feeds regime, S&P 500 forecasting and anomaly detection.
  • Forecast history and publication state are persisted in the repository.

Features and methods

  • Multi-horizon returns, volatility, trends/moving averages, VIX, rates, FX and cross-asset relationships.
  • Random Forest blended with rules for regime; Gradient Boosting for five-day probability and return.
  • Isolation Forest plus z-scores for anomalies; risk-on model with GBM and Ridge/OLS fallback.

Validation and failure modes

  • Temporal alignment of features and forward targets; rule fallback when history is insufficient.
  • Track record for probability, expected return, direction and calibration on matured outcomes.
  • Freshness, metric fingerprints, image-set hashes and duplicate blocking.

Runtime and delivery

  • pandas, NumPy, yfinance, pandas_market_calendars, pandas_datareader and scikit-learn.
  • matplotlib, ReportLab, Pillow, pytest, GitHub Actions and atproto.

11 · Technical detail

Method and assumptions

Regime classification, supervised forecasting, Isolation Forest anomalies and a composite risk index.

Main failure modes

Unstable relationships, unseen shocks and the risk of over-simplifying heterogeneous conditions.

Publication governance

Freshness, market calendar, model-baseline comparison, forecast history and duplicate guards.
