The needle shows where today's reading ranks against the last 20 years.
The number under the dial is the current reading.
$119.94
Red · Higher than 96% of readings in the last 20 years
The last times it read this high: March 2022, February 2012, April 2011. What followed: March 2022: already during the January–October 2022 sell-off; February 2012: no major sell-off in the following 12 months; April 2011: already during the April–October 2011 sell-off. A major sell-off began within 12 months of about one date in four over the last 40 years.
- The reading. Brent oil price: $119.94, the average of the last five trading days.
- The rank. The needle shows where today's reading ranks against the last 20 years, from the green end to the red end.
- The bands. Each colour holds a fifth of the past 20 years of readings and takes a fifth of the dial, with red always on the right.
- The history line. A reading near either end shows the last times it read this high or this low, and what followed in the markets then.
What you get
- The dashboard
- All 40 indicators in 12 categories, each with its needle, a full history chart with past major sell-offs shaded, its 6-month direction, and when it last updated and next updates.
- Counts, not scores
- Each category and the overall view show how many indicators sit in each colour, such as "11 of 27 core indicators in the red", plus a needle for their average 20-year rank.
- Flags with history
- When an indicator enters the red, moves into a new band, or moves towards red unusually fast, it is flagged with the last times it read this high and what followed then.
- The weekly email
- The overall picture, what moved, flagged indicators and a category snapshot.
What it is not
- It does not provide buy, sell or hold recommendations.
- It does not predict markets. Readings can stay in the red for years.
- It is not personal advice. It is the same data for every subscriber.
