حکمتِ عملی کے مارکیٹ رجیم فلٹر کے لیے ٹریژری پیداوار اور معاشی ڈیٹا
خلاصہ
یہ ڈیٹاسیٹ گائیڈ FRED سیریز حاصل کرنے، مشاہدات کو روزانہ کیلنڈر سے ہم آہنگ کرنے اور منتخب اشاریے تجزیے کے لیے لوڈ کرنے کا طریقہ بیان کرتی ہے۔ مثالوں میں ٹریژری پیداوار، 10-سالہ اور 2-سالہ پیداوار کا فرق، VIX، روزگار کے پیمانے، افراطِ زر، صنعتی پیداوار اور GDP شامل ہیں۔ انضمام کے بعد مختلف اصل تعدد والی سیریز کو آگے تک پُر کیا جاتا ہے، تاکہ تیار شدہ پینل کا روزانہ حکمتِ عملی کے ڈیٹا سے موازنہ ہو سکے۔
تجویز کردہ استعمال مارکیٹ رجیم فلٹرنگ ہے: پیداوار کے منحنیے کی ڈھلوان کو عمومی طور پر خطرہ قبول کرنے، احتیاط یا خطرے سے بچنے کے سگنل کے طور پر سمجھیں، پھر اسی حالت کے مطابق حکمتِ عملی کے سگنلز کے وزن رکھیں۔ گائیڈ ڈھلوان کا حساب اور اس کی تاریخ کا خلاصہ دکھاتی ہے، جس میں صفر سے کم مشاہدات کا تناسب بھی شامل ہے۔ یہ بھی واضح کرتی ہے کہ معاشی سیریز اجراء کے درمیان آگے تک لے جائی جاتی ہیں اور VIX کو اختتامی سطح سے ظاہر کیا جاتا ہے۔ یہ انتخاب ہم آہنگی آسان کرتے ہیں، مگر تیار شدہ روزانہ پینل کو ماہانہ یا سہ ماہی معاشی معلومات کے روزانہ اجراء کے طور پر نہیں سمجھنا چاہیے۔
اہم خیالات
- FRED معاشی سیریز کے اصل تعدد مختلف ہیں؛ مشاہدات کو آگے لے جا کر روزانہ کیلنڈر سے ہم آہنگ کیا جا سکتا ہے۔
- 10-سالہ اور 2-سالہ ٹریژری پیداوار کے فرق کو معاشی رجیم کی درجہ بندی کے سادہ ان پٹ کے طور پر پیش کیا گیا ہے۔
- پیداوار کے منحنیے کی حالت سے حکمتِ عملی کے سگنلز کو دیا جانے والا وزن مشروط کیا جا سکتا ہے۔
- VIX کی قدریں اختتامی سطحیں ظاہر کرتی ہیں، جبکہ آگے تک پُر کیے گئے معاشی مشاہدات اپنا کم تعدد والا اجراء برقرار رکھتے ہیں۔

# ## 2. API Key Setup
#
# FRED requires a free API key.
#
# ### Getting a FRED API Key
#
# 1. Go to [FRED API Key Signup](https://fredaccount.stlouisfed.org/login/secure/)
# 2. Create a free account or sign in
# 3. Navigate to **API Keys** and create a new key
# 4. Add to your `.env` file in the repository root:
#
# ```bash
# FRED_API_KEY=your-32-character-api-key
# ```
#
# FRED is free with generous rate limits (120 requests/minute).
# %%
# Verify API key is configured
api_key = os.getenv("FRED_API_KEY")

# ## 7. Documentation
#
# ### FRED API
# - [FRED API Documentation](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/docs/api/)
# - [API Key Request](https://fredaccount.stlouisfed.org/login/secure/)
# - Rate limit: 120 requests/minute (generous)
#
# ### Regime Filtering
#
# The yield curve slope is commonly used for regime detection:
#
# | Slope Range | Regime | Interpretation |
# |-------------|--------|----------------|
# | > 0.5% | Risk-on | Normal economic expansion |
# | 0% to 0.5% | Caution | Late cycle |
# | < 0% | Risk-off | Inverted curve, recession signal |
#
# Chapter 6 strategies use this for conditional signal weighting.
#
# ### Data Quality Notes
# - Treasury yields are daily (excluding weekends/holidays)
# - Economic series are forward-filled to daily alignment
# - VIX is close price (not intraday high)
# %% [markdown]
# ## 8. Updating Data
#
# To update with the latest data:
#
# ```python
# # Update all series
# download_macro_data()
#
# # Force full re-download
# download_macro_data(force=True)
# ```
#
# **Tip**: Update the `end` date in `config.yaml` before re-downloading.
# %% [markdown]
# ## Summary
#
# | Item | Value |
# |------|-------|
# | Series | 13+ (treasury yields, economic indicators) |
# | Frequency | Daily (aligned from native frequencies) |
# | Coverage | 2000-2025 |
# | Provider | FRED (free API key) |
# | Config | `config.yaml` |
# | Loader | `load_macro(series, start_date, end_date)` |
#
# **Primary use**: Yield curve slope for regime filtering in strategy signals.
