The mechanics behind the analytical indicators
Farlens tracks measurements that may contribute to market context and that many retail tools do not surface. These explainers cover what each one observes, how it may transmit and what it cannot establish — no jargon, no unfalsifiable claims, sources checkable. They are not trading signals.
The Twelve Measurements — the Farlens course
One lesson per measurement, twelve in all
Every measurement in the Farlens composite, taught properly: what it observes, how it may relate to price, how to read it — and what it cannot tell you. The full curriculum is public; lessons two to twelve are planned for Core at launch.
Lesson 1 is free: price trend
The slowest measurement carries the largest published weight. Read the complete first lesson free and judge the quality of the course yourself.
Credit conditions
Credit spreads, explained
The bond market's fear gauge — what the levels have historically meant, and why spreads often move before equities do.
What is the private credit market?
A trillion-dollar-plus lending market that moved off-exchange, its visibility problem, and the bubble debate stated fairly.
Crypto positioning
Funding rates and open interest
The two numbers that separate people buying an asset from people borrowing to bet on it.
Crypto liquidations
Why a 5% move becomes a 15% move — the mechanics of forced selling and why cascades happen.
Method and measurement
Walk-forward analysis
How to test a model on unseen data, the annualisation pitfall, and why the Farlens composite currently grades WEAK.
The Farlens composite
All twelve weighted measurements, the missing-data rule, and the validation grades — including the one that isn't flattering.
