How to use this tool

BTC / Gold Correlation tracks how Bitcoin moves relative to COMEX Gold using Pearson correlation on daily log returns.

How it works

  • Data refreshes daily (~22:35 local) from Yahoo Finance chart API.
  • Returns are log(close_t / close_t−1) on overlapping dates only.
  • Regimes: Store sync ≥0.45, Mild ≥0.15, Neutral >−0.15, Risk split >−0.45, else Hedge.
  • Delta compares correlation to the previous PEPS snapshot for that window.
  • Rolling series uses the same window length walked across recent history.

What to consider

  • BTC can rally on crypto-native flows while gold is flat — ρ may fall.
  • A flight-to-safety day can lift gold while BTC sells off — negative ρ.
  • Always confirm with volume, funding, and flow tools before acting.
  • Beta can exceed 1 when BTC amplifies gold moves (or vice versa).
  • Use alongside BTC / Nasdaq and BTC / DXY when those tools are live.
