WTI 5d change

What it is

WTI 5d change — registry key wti_5d_change.

Raw 5-day WTI percentage change; feeds energy_regime classification but carries no scoring band of its own.

Source

Source module: energy
Data source: back_fillable

Fetched directly from app/sources/energy.py; see source code for the upstream API call and any provider-specific handling.

How it’s computed

(wti_close[-1] / wti_close[-5] - 1) * 100 over the trailing 5 trading days. See app/sources/energy.py:115.

Where it surfaces

• API field: energy.wti_5d_change on GET /api/v1/signals/latest
• Surface: daily_signals row (daily-cadence persistence)
• Surface: /signals/sparklines (UI sparklines)
• Surface: change markers in the rendered report

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.

Release cadence

• Publishes: intraday
