Monte Carlo API

Live Monte-Carlo simulation for price and portfolio forecasting that quants, traders and planners run to model uncertainty — computed on demand and reproducibly, no key, nothing cached. Run a geometric-Brownian-motion simulation of an asset and get the terminal-price distribution (percentiles, mean, probability of a gain); get the modelled chance of reaching a target price; project wealth over many years with periodic contributions (a retirement / savings projection); and return one sample price path for charting. Every run is seeded, so the same inputs always give the same numbers. A forward-looking simulation engine, distinct from historical-statistics and option-pricing tools — it turns a drift and volatility into a distribution of outcomes.

Risk Metrics API

Live risk-adjusted-return analytics that quants and portfolio managers run on a return or price series — computed on demand, no key, nothing cached. Get the Sharpe ratio with annualised return and volatility; the Sortino ratio using downside deviation; periodic and annualised volatility, downside deviation and semivariance; and historical and parametric Value-at-Risk plus Conditional VaR (Expected Shortfall) at any confidence level. Every value is computed live from your input and works for any market — forex, stocks, crypto or funds. A risk-statistics engine, distinct from raw price feeds, from technical-indicator tools and from option-pricing tools: it turns a series of returns into the risk-adjusted performance numbers a strategy is judged on.

Forex Calculator API

Live foreign-exchange trading calculators computed from live ECB reference rates. The pip-value endpoint returns what one pip of a currency pair is worth, in the trader's account currency, for a given lot size. The position-size endpoint returns how many lots to trade to risk a fixed percentage of the account on a given stop-loss. The profit-loss endpoint returns the P&L of a trade from its entry, exit and direction. The margin endpoint returns the margin a position requires at a given leverage. All conversion to the account currency uses live exchange rates. Computed live, nothing stored. Distinct from raw FX-rate feeds — this turns rates into the pip values, position sizes, margins and P&L a trader acts on.

OFR Financial Stress API

Live financial-stability data from the U.S. Office of Financial Research, the federal body created after 2008 to measure systemic risk, via its public Financial Stress Index (FSI). The OFR FSI is a daily, market-based index of stress in the global financial system: a positive value means above-average stress, zero is the historical norm and negative means calm. Get the latest headline index with its day-over-day change. Decompose it into the five kinds of stress it tracks — credit, equity valuation, funding, safe-assets/flight-to-safety and volatility — to see which channel is driving stress. Split it by where the stress sits, the United States versus other advanced economies. Pull the daily time series of the headline or any component back two decades. Live, no key, nothing stored. Distinct from rate, FX, central-bank and stock-index APIs — this is a single, official, daily measure of how stressed the financial system is and why. Perfect for macro, risk, trading and analytics apps.

Volatility Indices API

Live market "fear gauges" across asset classes as an API, served from Yahoo Finance. The VIX is the market's headline fear index — the S&P 500's 30-day implied volatility — and this returns it alongside the rest of the family: the 9-day VIX (short-term fear), the Nasdaq-100 (VXN) and Dow (VXD) volatility indices, crude-oil (OVX) and gold (GVZ) volatility, and the VVIX, the volatility of the VIX itself. Each comes with its current level, the day's change, and its day and 52-week range, and the board adds a plain-language fear regime from the VIX (complacent, normal, elevated, high or extreme). Get the whole board or one index. The implied-volatility and risk-sentiment layer for trading, macro-research and dashboard apps. Live, no key, no cache. Distinct from equity-index, crypto-volatility and FX-volatility APIs — this is the cross-asset implied-volatility (fear) suite.

Crypto Volatility API

Live crypto realized (historical) volatility as an API, computed from Binance daily candles. For any coin it returns the annualized realized volatility over the 7-, 30- and 90-day windows — the standard deviation of daily log returns, annualized over 365 days — the average true range as a percent of price, the current price, and a plain-language regime label (low, normal, high or extreme). It can also rank a basket of major coins by their 30-day volatility, so you can see at a glance which assets are calm and which are wild. The volatility layer that options pricing, position sizing and risk dashboards need. Live, no key, no cache. Distinct from price, OHLC and drawdown APIs — this is the realized-volatility analytic.

FX Drawdown API

A live forex risk analytic that measures the worst peak-to-trough decline a currency pair has suffered, computed from European Central Bank daily reference rates. For any pair it returns the maximum drawdown over the period — the deepest drop from a high to a later low, with the dates it happened — how far the pair is currently below its period high, and whether it has recovered. Get a pair's drawdown over a month, quarter, half-year or year, or scan a basket to rank pairs by worst-case risk. Position-sizing and risk input for forex, trading and research apps. Live, no key. Distinct from rate, strength, volatility, correlation, signal, range and seasonality APIs.

Currency Correlation API

A live forex correlation analytic as an API, computed from European Central Bank daily reference rates. It measures how the world's currencies move together: each currency's daily appreciation is correlated against every other, so you can see which currencies move in lock-step (don't double up the same risk) and which move opposite (natural hedges). Get one currency's correlations to all others ranked, the coefficient for any pair, or a full correlation matrix for a basket. Risk and diversification input for forex, portfolio and trading apps. Live, no key. Distinct from currency-strength (direction) and FX-volatility (magnitude) — this is co-movement.

FX Volatility API

A live forex volatility analytic as an API, computed from European Central Bank daily reference rates. For any currency pair it returns the realised annualised volatility — the standard deviation of daily log returns scaled to a year — along with daily-return statistics; for the whole basket it ranks 30+ currencies by their average pairwise volatility, showing who is calm and who is choppy. The risk and position-sizing input forex, options and trading desks need. Look up a pair, rank the basket, or get one currency's volatility profile. Live, no key. Distinct from raw exchange-rate and currency-strength APIs — this is the realised-volatility (risk) measure.
