- Correlation: 0.61 (1h)
- Half-Life: 16h (1h timeframe)
Analysis:
- Directional Alignment: The 1h roll z-score of +1.48 indicates that COHR is statistically "rich" relative to EWY. Your chosen direction (Long EWY / Short COHR) is the mean-reversion play, betting on the spread to contract as COHR potentially underperforms or EWY recovers.
- Timeframe Divergence: The z-score is significantly higher on the 1h timeframe (+1.48) compared to the 1d timeframe (+0.04). This suggests the current "richness" of COHR is a shorter-term deviation rather than a long-term structural shift.
- Sentiment: No specific sentiment data is available for these assets.
- Note: The 1h z-score snapshot is ~1.3 hours old. Given the high z-score, verify if there has been a significant intraday move in either asset that might have already compressed the spread before entering.
