Direction matters because macro changes slowly. A weak level that is improving can be different from a weak level that is deteriorating.

Six conditions that shape risk appetite

How to use this data

What to do with the macro backdrop

Supportive / Improving

Normal risk is acceptable when price action confirms. Favour leaders, clean bases, and sectors with relative strength.

Mixed

Stay selective. Keep position size reasonable, demand better entries, and do not chase weak or extended charts.

Restrictive / Risk-off

Protect capital. Reduce leverage, tighten stops, favour quality and liquidity, and wait for confirmation before adding risk.

How to read this page

What this is

This is a macro environment dashboard. It tells you whether liquidity, policy, growth, rates, and the dollar are helping or hurting risk assets.

What this is not

It is not a buy or sell signal. Use it as context, then confirm with price action, market breadth, credit, and your own risk rules.

Best use

Use it to decide whether to be aggressive, selective, or defensive. Macro should influence risk size, not replace trade structure.

FAQ

Why did this page change from live API calls to cached data?

Macro data usually updates daily or monthly, not every second. Reading a server-built data file makes the page faster, more reliable, and less dependent on external APIs during each visitor request.

What is the yield curve?

The yield curve card uses the 10-year Treasury yield minus the 2-year Treasury yield. A positive or steepening curve is generally healthier than a deep inversion, but it must be read with growth, inflation, and credit.

What does liquidity pulse mean?

Liquidity Pulse uses M2 year-over-year growth. Expanding liquidity can support risk assets over time, while contraction or slowing liquidity makes markets more fragile.

Why is real policy rate important?

Policy Pressure compares Fed Funds with Core PCE inflation. A higher real policy rate means monetary policy is tighter, which can pressure speculative or rate-sensitive assets.

How should traders use macro mode?

Macro Mode should affect your risk posture. Supportive macro allows normal risk if price confirms. Mixed macro means be selective. Restrictive macro means smaller size, better entries, and tighter risk.
