What it answers

For every tracked asset, a directional score between −100 and +100, its verdict, its momentum, and the breakdown of the factors carrying it.

When to open it

  • To find assets worth digging into: sort by OVERALL, click a score that stands out, read the factors.
  • To spot a rotation: POS emptying out, FLOW picking up, MACRO flipping across a whole class.
  • To place an asset you already follow: where it sits in its own history, and who else in the matrix looks like it.

Anatomy

Three blocks: the top strip (regime, classes, top movers), the table (one row per asset), and the analysis drawer (opens on click, several in parallel if you need them).

To the right of the Trend title in the header, a pill gives the matrix's date. Green dot = today's snapshot, amber = recomputed on the fly.

How to read it

The top strip

ElementHow to read it
REGIMERISK-ON, BALANCED or RISK-OFF. Reflects the gap between risk assets (indices, crypto, commodities) and safe-havens (gold, bonds). This is the backdrop: everything else reads against it.
risk-on avg / risk-off avgAverage score of each basket; n=… gives the count.
Class chips (FX, METALS, COMMODITY, INDEX, BOND, CRYPTO)Average score, then {n}↑ net bullish, {n}↓ net bearish, out of the total. Click to isolate the class in the table; click again to restore everything. The strip itself stays computed on the full universe — the diagnosis doesn't move.
TOP BULL / TOP BEARThe day's three extremes, with score, momentum and verdict. Click to open the asset's drawer directly.

The table

One row per asset. Default sort: OVERALL descending.

ColumnHow to read it
AssetClass pill (or flags for FX pairs), ticker and name.
OverallComposite score, −100 extreme bearish, +100 extreme bullish. The bipolar bar carries the same value.
VerdictText bucket — see the scale below.
30dThe score's path over 30 days. A freshly minted extreme doesn't read like one that has held for weeks — the sparkline tells you which at a glance.
MomentumArrow ▲ ▼ —, signed velocity (the score's move over the past week, in points), and P{n} — where today's score sits in its own recent history. P95 = a local high, P5 = a trough.
MACRO, POS, RISK, FLOWThe category's score, a bipolar bar, a small momentum arrow. N/A = no applicable signal (for instance POS on an asset with no COT contract); the OVERALL score then redistributes the weight across the remaining categories.

The verdicts

One scale, shared by the OVERALL score and the category scores:

PillScoreHow to read it
EXTREME≥ +80 / ≤ −80Extreme conviction. Rare, worth examining.
STRONG±60 to ±80Strong conviction.
MODERATE±40 to ±60Moderate conviction.
MILD±20 to ±40A slight lean.
NEUTRAL−20 to +20No tradable signal. It doesn't mean the asset will range: only that the model produces no meaningful predictive power on it today.

Green above zero, red below — the same code as everywhere else in the app.

The drawer

Click a row to open it, Esc or another click to close. Several drawers can stay open side by side — handy for comparing two FX pairs, or an asset against the one that should follow it.

BlockHow to read it
Headline scoreThe OVERALL score, large, the verdict, and three momentum stats: VEL (the score's move over the week), ACC (the change in VEL versus the week before — positive = accelerating, negative = losing steam), (where the score sits in its own history).
90-DAY SCORE HISTORYThe OVERALL score's curve over 90 days. The green/red banding makes the regime flips visible.
Category cardsMacro, Positioning, Risk Regime, Flow. Each restates what it looks at, gives its score and momentum, then details every factor inside it.

The factor rows

One row per factor inside each card:

ElementHow to read it
Factor nameTrend, Momentum, Currency Strength, COT Position, PMI, Inflation, Rate Decisions, ETF Flow, Polymarket Drift, and so on.
z ±0.00A signed reading, oriented to the asset's directionality (positive = bullish). The larger the absolute value, the further the reading sits from that factor's normal.
P{n}Where the reading falls in its own history. P95 = the top extreme, P5 = the bottom.
n={…}How much history is available. A small n means a young signal — weight it accordingly.
Severity pillNOMINAL · ELEVATED · MEDIUM · HIGH · CRITICAL. The intensity of the gap, regardless of sign.
drivers pillsShort tags. See the docs for the underlying factors (COT, Macro, and so on).

Cross-check with other Hawkline features

  • A flagged MACRO cell: Macro breaks down the calendar surprises currency by currency.
  • An extreme POS: COT gives you the raw non-commercial positioning.
  • FLOW turning on a crypto or an index: Markets for the adjacent Polymarket probabilities.

Keep in mind

  • As a rule, 60 to 80% of the matrix comes out NEUTRAL; that is the normal operating regime. In markets, tradable signals are rare — which is precisely what makes them signals rather than noise.
  • N/A on a category is not a neutral signal: it means no factor in that category applies to the asset. The OVERALL score then redistributes the weight across the remaining categories.
  • Young factors (very low n) carry more variance than the others; the severity pill is calibrated on the history actually available.
