Each gauge produces a composite reading from 0 to 100. Low scores mean the market for that sector is behaving normally — volatility is contained, money is flowing in expected directions, nothing is breaking. High scores mean stress is building — volatility is spiking, capital is rotating defensively, structural signals are deteriorating. The score is not a price prediction. It is a condition read.
Look at it as a panel, not as individual readings. A single sector at 70 is interesting. Three sectors simultaneously above 60 is a regime signal. When equity stress, bond stress, and dollar stress are all elevated together, that is a coordinated risk-off move. When equity stress is low but emerging markets stress is high, that is dollar strength exporting pressure globally. The dashboard tells you what kind of environment you are operating in so your analysis starts from an accurate baseline.
Every gauge shows three component bars that feed the composite score. Each component is normalized to 0–100 and weighted to produce the final reading.
Equity — VIX level (implied fear), VVIX (vol-of-vol), HYG vs SPY 20-day spread (credit vs equity stress).
Bitcoin — 30-day realized volatility, Crypto Fear & Greed Index, BTC vs ETH 20-day relative performance.
All other sectors — Sector ETF realized volatility, relative return vs the broader market, and an internal spread between related instruments within that sector.
