Asset Correlation Tool v3, improvedI found this useful tool among the indicators but it wasn't doing the correlation study correctly.
Everything in markets, with only a few exceptions, are rising in value over time and therefore trended to time. The simplest method I found is to use link relative or first difference detrending, before calculating a correlation between assets.
I also updated it to include more assets, to use the latest Cryptocap indices like BTC.D/ETH.D/TOTAL2 and the top 100 crypto index CIX100. I improved the colour schemes, too
Included in the source code are some other ideas like the FRED:M1 and FRED:M2 (only on daily charts), the Yuan/Yen/EUR/USD, etc. There's lots of scope for correlating unrelated markets.
I'll keep updating it as I use it to find truly correlated assets. Some kind of signal line of known correlations, to subtract from the baseline fuzz of market activity.
Any improvements are most welcome; I'm a novice at best at statistics and build on others' work.
