Risk-Adjusted Return Screener API
Ranks a cross-asset universe by how much return each asset delivers per unit of risk, live from Yahoo Finance daily closes — no key, nothing stored. A raw return tells you nothing about how much risk you took to earn it: two assets up 12% are not equal if one rode a calm trend and the other whipsawed through deep drawdowns. This screener turns each asset's price history into the three risk-adjusted ratios allocators actually rank on — the Sharpe ratio (excess return per unit of total volatility), the Sortino ratio (excess return per unit of downside volatility only), and the Calmar ratio (annualised return per unit of worst peak-to-trough drawdown) — and sorts the whole universe (21 instruments across equities, sectors, commodities, bonds and crypto) so you can see in one call which markets pay the most for the risk you bear. The screener endpoint ranks the universe (filterable by asset class) by the metric you choose; the asset endpoint returns one instrument's full risk-adjusted profile with plain-language reads. This is the risk-adjusted-return / reward-per-risk ranking cut — distinct from a bring-your-own-series Markowitz optimiser, the CAPM/beta calculator, the momentum and the price APIs. It ranks live assets by efficiency, not raw performance.

Variance Ratio Test API
A formal statistical test of whether a market follows a random walk, or whether its returns carry tradeable momentum or mean-reversion that is real rather than noise — the Lo-MacKinlay variance ratio test, computed live from Yahoo Finance daily closes, no key, nothing stored. Most persistence tools give you a single descriptive number; this gives you a hypothesis test with a verdict. The variance ratio compares the variance of multi-day returns to the variance of one-day returns scaled up: under a true random walk the ratio is 1 at every horizon. A ratio above 1 means returns positively autocorrelate (trends persist — momentum); below 1 means they reverse (mean-reversion). Crucially it attaches a heteroskedasticity-robust z-statistic and a p-value at each horizon, so you know whether the deviation from a random walk is statistically significant or just sampling noise — the thing a point estimate cannot tell you. The asset endpoint runs the test at horizons of 2, 4, 8 and 16 days and returns each ratio, z-statistic, p-value and a reject/fail-to-reject verdict, plus an overall read. The screener endpoint ranks the cross-asset universe by their 2-day variance ratio, separating the statistically momentum-like markets from the mean-reverting ones. This is the random-walk hypothesis-test cut — distinct from the Hurst-exponent regime API (a point estimate with no significance), the momentum and the price APIs. It is the test, with the p-value attached.

Calendar Effects (Day-of-Week & Turn-of-Month) API
The two best-documented calendar anomalies in equities — the day-of-week effect and the turn-of-month effect — measured live across a cross-asset universe from Yahoo Finance daily history, no key, nothing stored. Decades of research show returns are not spread evenly through the week or the month: the turn-of-month effect — the cluster of the last trading day of a month and the first few of the next — has historically captured the bulk of the entire month's gain while the rest of the month drifts; and the day-of-week effect (the old "Monday effect" and its kin) shows some weekdays running persistently stronger than others. This API quantifies both directly. The turnofmonth endpoint splits an instrument's history into the turn-of-month window (the last trading day plus the first three of each month) versus the rest, and returns the average daily return and win-rate of each, the spread between them, and the share of the total return earned inside that handful of days. The dayofweek endpoint returns, for each weekday, the average daily return, win-rate and sample size, with the best and worst day. The screener endpoint ranks the cross-asset universe by the strength of the turn-of-month effect, so you can see where the calendar edge is biggest. This is the day-of-week / turn-of-month calendar-anomaly cut — distinct from the month-of-year seasonality APIs (equity-index, FX, commodity) and the crypto-only intraday/day-of-week seasonality API. Patterns are descriptive, not predictive.

Relative Volume (RVOL) API
Which markets are trading on abnormal volume right now — the first scan a day-trader runs to find what is "in play" — computed live from Yahoo Finance daily volume, no key, nothing stored. Price tells you where a market is; volume tells you whether anyone cares. A stock drifting on half its normal volume is noise; the same stock on three times its average is a market reacting to something — earnings, news, a breakout — and that is where the opportunity and the risk live. Relative volume (RVOL) is today's volume divided by its recent average: 1.0 is a normal day, 2.0 is double, and anything above signals unusual participation. For each instrument this API returns today's volume, its 20- and 50-day average volume, the RVOL against each, where today's volume sits as a percentile of the window, the dollar (notional) volume for liquidity, and whether volume is trending up or down. The asset endpoint returns one instrument's full volume profile; the screener endpoint ranks the universe by RVOL, putting the names trading on the most unusual volume — the ones in play — at the top. This is the relative-volume / unusual-activity cut — distinct from the bring-your-own-series volume-indicator tools (OBV, MFI), the crypto volume-by-price profile, the order-flow tape and the price APIs. It is the volume that is out of the ordinary.

Closing Strength (CLV) API
Where each market closes inside its daily range, and what that says about who is in control into the bell, computed live from Yahoo Finance daily OHLC — no key, nothing stored. The close is the most important price of the day: a market that runs up but closes back near its low was sold into all afternoon (distribution), while one that closes on its highs has buyers in firm control (accumulation), even if the headline change is the same. The Close Location Value (CLV) captures this on a -1 to +1 scale — +1 is a close exactly on the high, -1 exactly on the low, 0 the middle of the range. This API turns it into a conviction gauge. For each instrument it returns today's CLV, the average CLV over the window (a positive average means closes persistently in the upper half — accumulation; negative means distribution), the recent 20-day CLV as the current pressure reading, the share of days that closed in the upper third versus the lower third of their range, and a plain-language read. The asset endpoint returns one instrument's full closing-strength profile; the screener endpoint ranks the cross-asset universe from strongest accumulation to heaviest distribution, so you can see where buyers are quietly winning the close. This is the close-location / accumulation-distribution-pressure cut, price-only and no volume — distinct from the candlestick-pattern API (named shapes on the last bar), the volume-indicator tools and the price feeds. It is who won the day.
