The mechanics behind the signals
Farlens measures a handful of things that genuinely move portfolios and that most retail tools ignore. These explainers cover what each one is and how it transmits — no jargon, no unfalsifiable claims, sources checkable.
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 strategy honestly, the annualisation pitfall that skews results, and the overfit signal it caught in our own system.
The Farlens composite
All twelve weighted measurements, the missing-data rule, and the validation grades — including the one that isn't flattering.
