Market context · weekly observation window

Market context

Combined market read unavailable: the native comparison endpoints are incomplete or misaligned.

Previous report, watch levels and methodology

One-week surface context; the published headline retains its original evidence basis. Cutoffs 17 Oct, 16:31 UTC to 24 Oct, 16:31 UTC.

Measured change since prior report

Prior comparison unavailable: matching asset, cadence and adjacent observation endpoints were not verified.

A structured watchlist was not recorded or could not be verified in the prior edition; prior-watch outcomes remain unavailable.

Next weekly cutoff: measurable checks

Measurable watch unavailable: no valid nonzero surface move has comparable endpoints.

Measurement basis and receipt

These are observed-level conditions for the next aligned cutoff, with no forecast or trade action. Spot uses exact index endpoints where available; ATM IV is quoted in percent and its change, RR25 and BF25 in volatility points. Stored editorial receipt independently reconstructed against native endpoints.

    07 · Methodology

    Aligned, availability-aware weekly evidence.

    Latest successful snapshot at or before the common cutoff versus the nearest successful snapshot seven days earlier, within a three-hour tolerance.

    Standard-tenor values are published only when listed expiries bracket the target on both endpoints; extrapolated values are suppressed.

    Seven-day performance uses the nearest eligible listed forward available at both endpoints.
