Risk-On / Risk-Off

A quick read on whether markets are leaning toward risk appetite or defensive positioning.

Current Regime
Risk-Off
Score
-52
Risk-Off Neutral Risk-On

The automated basket is leaning risk-off as defensive currencies are outperforming the growth group.

Score Guide
-100 to -61 = Strong Risk-Off
-60 to -21 = Risk-Off
-20 to 20 = Neutral
21 to 60 = Risk-On
61 to 100 = Strong Risk-On
EUR is the strongest growth-sensitive currency in the basket. JPY is leading the defensive group. Gold is softer (XAUUSD -0.40%), which is reinforcing a more risk-friendly tone. Defensive currencies are showing broader relative strength than the growth group.

How To Use This

Currency strength helps you see which currencies are currently leading and lagging on a short-term basis.

Risk sentiment helps you judge whether markets are leaning defensive or growth-seeking right now.

Use both together as tactical context, then confirm your trade ideas with your own higher-timeframe trend work and lower-timeframe execution plan.
