The German 2-Year yield here is the Deutsche Bundesbank’s yield for listed German federal securities with 2 years to maturity and an annual coupon, quoted in percent a year. It is read off the term structure the Bank estimates each trading day from those securities’ prices, so it is not the yield of any one bond.

Rules-based reading

A transparent, rules-based reading of the facts on this page. Each badge traces to a published rule and to the metrics shown. Reporting, not advice.

What these badges mean
Trend
The yield is above some of its 20/50/200-day moving averages and below others. A position versus trend, not a direction to trade.
Level
The current yield is at the 73rd percentile of this tenor's history since 1997. A level versus its own history — not itself high or low value, and not a direction.
Volatility
20-day realised yield volatility at the 78th percentile of its own history since 1997. Higher = larger daily yield swings; a magnitude, not a direction.
52-week position
The yield is at 83.9% of its 52-week range. A position within the range — not itself high or low value, and not a direction.
RSI
RSI(14) on the yield series is 49.39. Readings of 70 and above are stretched high (the yield has risen faster than it has fallen recently), below 30 stretched low (the reverse), and between them neutral. A momentum reading, not a recommendation.
