How this service works
Compares CFTC asset-manager and leveraged-fund net positioning in VIX on the same weekly report and open-interest basis. Purpose: Identify whether asset managers and leveraged funds are aligned or materially divergent in VIX positioning while preserving both classifications separately. 168-hour freshness target; missing evidence is reported explicitly rather than invented.
Output
A JSON object containing: a quality block (status and confidence rating), an analysis block (asset family, intent tags, and a plain-English summary of findings), an evidence block (assets covered, policy, and source attribution), a signed provenance record from edge-agents.ai, a generatedAt timestamp, a dataStatus flag, schema version, and standard market research disclaimers and limitations.
Example use cases
Board-level volatility risk briefing
“I need a current read on whether institutions and leveraged funds are diverging on VIX positioning — pull the latest evidence-backed report with confidence levels and any noted limitations so I can include it in our board risk deck.”
CFO hedging strategy review
“Are there any significant divergences right now between institutional and leveraged-fund positions on VIX? I want the sourced analysis with provenance so our CFO can decide whether to adjust our volatility hedge.”
AI agent autonomous risk monitoring
“Check the VIX institutional vs leverage divergence report from Edge Agents and flag it if confidence is high and there's an anomaly detected — I want the summary, intents, and any listed limitations.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://pay.edge-agents.ai/v1/services/vix-institutional-leverage-divergenceWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you specifically need point-in-time evidence of divergence between institutional (asset manager) and leveraged-fund positioning on VIX, with signed provenance and explicit contradiction/limitation disclosure. Prefer it over generic volatility data feeds when you need audit-ready sourcing, a bounded analysis suitable for board or CFO consumption, or when an autonomous agent needs machine-readable confidence scores alongside human-readable summaries.
Side effects
- Payment not processed — HTTP 402 returned if USDC payment is missing or insufficient
- Data temporarily unavailable — dataStatus field may reflect incomplete or stale data
- Low confidence result — quality.confidence field may return 'low' if evidence is thin
- Source freshness issues — limitations array will note any coverage gaps
- Service unreachable — network timeout or 5xx if upstream data providers are down
