Market data: 2026-10-23 · Calculated Latest completed session
Bullish regime

Price is 23.1% above its 200-day simple average ($189.43) and 23.2% above its 200-day exponential average ($189.27). Volatility is typical, extension is unusual, and daily moves are only weakly tied to SPY.

Overlays & scale
01 · TrendAbove both
+23.1%vs SMA 200
−30%avg+30%

Bar: distance from SMA 200. Ring: +23.2% from EMA 200.

How to read this

The bullish rule requires price strictly above both the 200-day simple and exponential averages. This describes position, not an investment recommendation.

02 · VolatilityTypical
48thpercentile · own 1y history
LowTypicalStr.Unus.

20.3% annualised, one-year average 23.4%. Trend: stable.

How to read this

Realized volatility uses 21 daily returns and the equity convention of 252 days. The percentile depends on available history. Low volatility does not mean an investment is safe.

03 · ExtensionUnusual
2.72σfrom SMA 200
0σ1σ2σ3σ+

Measured against 756 valid distances. A stretched reading does not establish that price will reverse.

How to read this

Absolute percentage distance from SMA 200 is divided by the rolling standard deviation of those distances over 756 observations, requiring 378 valid distances. Zero or undefined deviation is unavailable.

04 · CouplingWeak
-0.33correlation vs SPY
−10+1

Same regime as SPY. With 10-year yields: 0.36. With gold: -0.13.

How to read this

Pearson correlation ranges from −1 to +1; strength uses its absolute magnitude, while the sign gives direction. 251 paired returns were used; at least 30 are needed. Co-movement can change and does not establish causation.

In plain language

CVX follows the bullish trend rule, with price 23.1% above its 200-day simple average. Recent volatility is typical relative to its available history. Absolute extension is 2.7 times the historical deviation of its distance from the average. Return correlation with SPY is -0.33.

Market, volume and options context

The observed curve is normal: long-term rates exceed short-term rates. The 10-year yield is 4.99%.

Volume is 10% below its 30-day average; the recent volume trend is stable.

Implied volatility is 45% above realized volatility. This comparison alone does not establish whether an option is cheap or expensive.

Pillar Readings
descriptive measurements
Extension from Trend+2.72σ

Price is 2.7 times the historical standard deviation of its distance from the 200-day average above that average. This measures extension; it does not establish the likelihood of a reversal.

Market Coupling-0.33 vs SPY

Daily returns show weak correlation with SPY over the latest shared year of observations (r = -0.33). The sign describes movement in the opposite direction. Correlation does not establish causation or measure portfolio diversification on its own.

Calculated from available price history. Separate measurements can be related to one another; they are not independent confirmations of a trading signal.
