IWM RSI 14

What it is

IWM RSI 14 — registry key iwm_rsi.

14-period Wilder RSI for IWM. market.py:_analyze_single_ticker computes RSI_14 for every ticker it processes; downstream previously captured only IVR. Small-cap momentum read for the drawdown-risk lane — divergence from spy_rsi flags breadth deterioration before it shows in price. Series starts at the 2026-06-05 deploy and FILLS FORWARD – the sparse history is intentional, not a defect (REFACTOR inventory Cat-1B); no backfill planned.

Data-pyramid tier

T1 — Signal. This metric sits at the signal layer of the platform’s six-tier data pyramid (T0 raw inputs → T5 actionable read). The tier reflects how far the value is from a raw measurement — not how strongly it is validated. Abstraction and validation are separate axes: a higher tier is not a claim of stronger evidence.

Horizon & validation

No validated skill horizon is on file for this metric — read it as context / a data carrier, not a validated edge. Stamps are added only when a gated research verdict lands.

How it’s computed

14-period Wilder RSI of IWM close, computed in market.py:_analyze_single_ticker via rolling avg-gain / avg-loss on the 1-year price history. Extracted via engine.py from data[‘market’][‘equity_board’][‘IWM’][‘RSI_14’].

Where it surfaces

Health-score / alignment role

Data carrier — no implication, no health-score contribution.

Persisted for downstream consumers (sparklines, base-rate matcher, calibration substrate) but does not classify into BULLISH / NEUTRAL / BEARISH and does not contribute to the 0-100 health score.
