Direction: ^VIX 18.63, +16.95% over the period: regime risk-off.
▲ Up / Buy – closed in the top 30% of its range with a positive period return, the market is not risk-off (VIX < 25 and not up 10%+), and the move isn't stretched.
▼ Down / Sell – closed in the bottom 30% of its range with a negative period return, and the move isn't stretched.
► Flat / Hold – everything else, including a stretched move: a period return past 1.5x the Expected Move (the move has already run). Expected Move is the implied volatility scaled to this period, or the realized volatility of the hourly bars for a symbol with no options. Hover a tag for the reasoning.
