How these reports are built
Each quarter is computed from CFGI's stored daily readings of the Fear and Greed Index: the last 1d reading of every UTC day in the window, its 10 components and the stored daily CAT price. Averages are over scored trading days only. A running quarter updates with every data cycle; a closed quarter is final.
