MACRO CORRELATIONS
Macro Strategist Specialist
MACRO_CORRELATIONS for Gold ships in Sprint 286 as the inverted-direction sibling of the crypto agent. Same VIX/DXY/QQQ/SPX feeds, opposite playbook. When the crypto councils are AVOIDing because VIX has spiked, this agent is BUYing gold — capital flees risk and bids the safe haven. The post-LLM override that forces STRONG_AVOID on crypto also forces STRONG_BUY on gold, even when the AI council is unavailable.
What I Watch
VIX Regime
Monitors VIX, DXY and SPX for macro regime shifts. Uniquely inverted for Gold — VIX spikes trigger STRONG BUY as safe-haven demand surges. Forces protective positioning during market crises.
DXY Trend
US dollar index. Rising DXY mechanically compresses gold (priced in USD); falling DXY lifts the bid.
QQQ Correlation
Nasdaq-100 risk sentiment proxy. Equity strength drains gold demand; equity drawdowns drive rotation into bullion.
SPX Momentum
S&P 500 5-session momentum. Risk-off equity prints amplify gold's safe-haven bid.
Safe-Haven Appetite
Composite gold-specific risk-off classification synthesized from VIX, DXY, QQQ and SPX.
Recent Verdict
— VIX inside the normal range, DXY consolidating. No safe-haven flow detected — clearance for technical signals to drive the entry. If VIX prints extreme, this agent flips to STRONG_BUY and overrides the rest of the council.

Council Role
