How to read this chart

The index runs from 0 to 100. The band shown at the endpoint is the published confidence interval for the current session. History rows carry no per-session band, so none is drawn across the series rather than one being invented.

The shaded colour behind the line is the regime published on that day, never a later re-labelling. Nothing in this series is recomputed with hindsight.

Where each number comes from

Sources for everything on this page, and a plain list of what is deliberately not here.

Sources

  • The index, its sub-scores, the regime, SPY, VIX, VIX3M and the volatility risk premium all come from mpi.json, computed on 12 Sep 2026 for the 11 Sep 2026 close.
  • The chart and the ribbon come from the published history file: 86 sessions, each holding the value published that day.
  • Flow and dark-pool observations in the editions are sourced from Unusual Whales. The index inputs are free public data.

What is not here

  • Sub-indicator weights, the classifier’s transition matrix, lookback windows and scanner thresholds are not published, and so are not shown.
  • Day-over-day change for SPY and VIX is not in the payload, so it is not printed. The expected move and the term-structure spread are published, and are shown in its place.
  • Any value without a source renders as — beside its stamp, never as a plausible-looking number.

Research, not advice. SomerQuant publishes market-structure research: what printed in options flow, what printed in dark-pool activity, and where the regime classifier put the session at the close. Nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell any security, and nothing here is personalised to you or to your circumstances.

Options carry risk and are not suitable for every investor. Please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options before acting on anything you read, here or anywhere else.

The alignment figures in the Accountability Ledger are a public record of how published observations resolved against the next session’s move. They are not trade results, and they are not a forecast.
