HYG Volume Ratio

What it is

HYG Volume Ratio — registry key hyg_vol.

Classifier metric. See the bands table below for the band-by-band reading.

Source

Source module: macro_indicators
Data source: computed

Derived metric — produced inside the platform (app/sources/macro_indicators.py or equivalent) rather than fetched as a raw upstream value. See the How it's computed section below for the formula.

How it’s computed

Annualized 21-day realized volatility of HYG daily returns: stdev(returns_21d) × sqrt(252) × 100, in percent. Mirrors the market.py realized-vol method used for SPY.
