Price fluctuation intensity - scaled to one year
Volatility (365d, annualized) measures how violently price moved over the last year, scaled to a yearly rate. It is less about final direction and more about how rough the ride felt along the way.
Volatility captures movement intensity, not quality. Low volatility can still hide a slow grind lower, while high volatility can appear inside both powerful rallies and ugly breakdowns.
Technical definition, calculation notes and sources stay available here without dominating the explanation.
Volatility measures how much a price fluctuates - how “choppy” the moves are.
High volatility means larger swings up and down. That often feels riskier because interim losses can be bigger.
Here we look at the last 365 days.
