Data-driven finance and investing insights

What is Alphamancy?

Alphamancy is a finance and investing platform that helps you make sense of cross-asset market signals. We distill complex macro data into clear, actionable regime analysis so you can position your portfolio with confidence.

The Alphameter

Our flagship tool, the Alphameter, computes a single Risk-On / Risk-Off composite score from 6 cross-asset indicators. Instead of watching dozens of charts, you get one clear answer: is the market environment favorable for risk, or is it time to be defensive?

The 6 Indicators

  • VIX Fear Gauge — Tracks market volatility and fear levels
  • AUD/JPY — Currency carry trade barometer for global risk appetite
  • Copper/Gold Ratio — Leading indicator of industrial growth vs. safety demand
  • Bond Yields — Treasury yield trends showing flight to safety
  • Sector Rotation — Cyclical vs. defensive sector performance
  • Dollar Strength — USD index measuring global capital flows

Each indicator generates a signal: risk-on (+1), neutral (0), or risk-off (-1). These are combined with empirical weights into a composite score ranging from -100 to +100. The result is a clear regime classification updated daily after market close.

How to Use It

The Alphameter is a decision-support tool, not financial advice. Use the regime score to contextualize your own research:

  • In risk-on regimes, lean toward growth and cyclical assets
  • In risk-off regimes, prioritize capital preservation and defensive holdings
  • In neutral regimes, stay balanced and watch for regime transitions
