Assess next-week probabilities, expected run length, and reward stats (horizon: k=2 weeks).
How the Markov model works here
A Markov Chain simplifies weekly price action into states—Down, Neutral, Up—and learns the probability of moving from one to the next. It’s “memoryless”: the next step depends on the current state, not distant history.
We present: Prob. Up Next Week (one-week transition), Prob. Up ≤ k (at least one Up in the next k
weeks), Expected Run (typical state duration), and Reward Stats (average weekly returns by state/transition).
Higher Up probabilities / longer Up runs = constructive. Persistent negative rewards or Down bias = caution. Educational only – not financial advice.

Quick Read
Plain-English Interpretation
Current regime: Down.
Short-term odds do not favour an Up move yet. Downtrends here can linger; patience is key if waiting for a turn. If/when it flips Up, rallies often carry for several weeks. Even in Up, returns have been soft recently - use extra confirmation. Typical weekly range sits between -0.408 and 0.365 (20th–80th pct).

Reading the metrics
- Prob. Up Next Week — one-step transition. Higher values are constructive.
- Prob. Up ≤ k — chance of at least one Up in the next
k
weeks. - Expected Run — typical duration of current state; longer Up runs support trends.
- P20 / P80 — typical weekly range for risk sizing.
- Reward Stats — average weekly returns by state/transition; negatives flag caution.
