Pulse Lab
Market reading tools, rebuilt after each market close (with a morning refresh on trading days). Market Pulse Index is an overall score out of 100 (a composite of nine sub-indicators) showing how the market is doing right now. Regime Model tells you whether the market is in Bull (high-return), Neutral (average), or Crisis (risk-off) mode, based on broad-market return patterns. Daily and Weekly Pulse summarize the session and the prior Monday–Friday money flows. Source data: end-of-day options and equities feeds.
How to read the MPI dashboard →
What you’re looking at: A composite 0–100 score of current market state, computed from nine sub-indicators and rebuilt after each market close (with a morning refresh on trading days).
The number itself: below 40 → Bear. 40–60 → Neutral. above 60 → Bull — the same bands that generate the published label in the data feed. The score is descriptive of now, not predictive of next week
The confidence band: the range around the score reflects disagreement among the component inputs. Wider band = more disagreement.
What it doesn’t do: Doesn’t predict price targets. Doesn’t tell you when to enter or exit. Doesn’t replace your own analysis. Read the full methodology for inputs and limitations.

Bull — the market is in its higher-return mode: steady gains, shallow pullbacks, risk appetite intact.
Neutral — the average mode: choppier sessions, mixed leadership, returns closer to the long-run norm.
Crisis — the risk-off mode: sharp swings, correlated selling, defensives outperforming.
The Regime Model is a regime classifier that reads the market’s mode from broad-market return patterns over a long historical window. It updates after each market close. It describes the current mode — it does not predict the next one.
