What goes in
A research system is only as good as its inputs. This page lists each category of data the platform uses and what it is used for.
| Category | Inputs | Used for | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crypto market data | Price, volume, and — where available — funding rates and open interest | Momentum, volatility, liquidity and market-structure readings | To be published |
| ETF market data | Price, volume and fund flows for sector, index, thematic, commodity and bond ETFs | Sector leadership, breadth and cross-asset context | To be published |
| Rates and fixed income | Treasury yields across maturities, credit spreads, market-implied inflation and rate expectations | Yield-curve shape, duration sensitivity and risk-appetite readings | To be published |
| Macro indicators | Scheduled economic releases | Regime context for the signals above | To be published |
| News and sentiment | Text sources summarised into sentiment readings | A secondary input to interpretation, never a signal on its own | To be published |
| Portfolio state | Current positions and exposure | Risk checks and position sizing | Internal |

What can go wrong with data
- Different clocks. Crypto trades continuously; ETFs and bonds do not. Series are aligned to common timeframes before they are compared.
- Gaps and delays. Feeds can stall or arrive late. A signal built on stale data is worse than no signal.
- Revisions. Economic releases are often revised after publication.
- Coverage. Some inputs, such as funding and open interest, are only available for some instruments.
