Node Library

Macro & Intermarket Nodes

Context from outside the chart: the dollar, equities, gold, macro series and seasonality. Use these to filter or bias a strategy with the broader risk environment instead of trading the instrument in isolation.

Node families

Intermarket correlation

Relate your instrument to reference markets, the US Dollar Index (DXY), the S&P 500, and gold, to read risk-on / risk-off context.

DXY · S&P 500 · gold

Rotation & strength

Track relative strength and capital rotation between markets so a strategy can lean with the dominant flow.

relative strength

Macro series

Pull macro-economic series (rates, indices and more) from FRED to use as context or filters in a strategy.

FRED series

Seasonality & calendar

Day-of-week, month and seasonal-window effects for time-based context and filtering.

seasonality

Data sources & keys

Macro series are sourced from FRED (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis); reference markets and gold come from the platform’s data pipeline. Some macro nodes need a free FRED API key configured to fetch live data.

Reference data, aligned

Reference series are date-aligned to your candles (and held over weekend gaps) so correlations don't break on non-trading days.

Bring a FRED key

A free FRED API key unlocks the macro series. Attribution for each provider is listed on the public Attributions page.

Source attribution. Data providers (FRED, and others) require visible credit; see /attributions. Some series may be delayed or restricted by the provider’s terms.
