The lookback period is the range of past data used to calculate the volatility metrics (IVR, IVP, and HV).
Shorter Lookbacks (7D, 15D, 1M): Zoom in on recent price action. This makes your metrics highly sensitive to sudden, short-term market shifts.
Longer Lookbacks (3M, 6M, 1Y): Zoom out to see the bigger picture. This smooths out daily "noise" to reveal the true, long-term trend.
By default, the system uses a 1-Year (1Y) period, but you can customize your view at any time by selecting 7D, 15D, 1M, 3M, 6M or 1Y from the settings.
