INIT / LTC ratio and spread
1 INIT = 0.002674 LTC. Below is the price ratio chart and the regression spread z-score. Hedge ratio β is 1.237 and the correlation between the legs is 0.50.
If you hold INIT · If you hold LTC
INIT has been more expensive against LTC than now only 3 % of the time over 1.1 years. If you hold INIT, this is worth a look at rotating into LTC.

Key numbers
over 391 daily candles
How each of these is computed: regression spread, hedge ratio, spread z-score, half-life, correlation.
What the numbers say
The legs move together only moderately — correlation of daily log returns is 0.50, with a hedge ratio of 1.24. Signals from this pair carry more noise than on a tightly linked one.
The spread currently sits at 3.58 standard deviations above its rolling mean — INIT is expensive relative to LTC by the standards of this window.
Historically the spread covers half the way back to its mean in about 19 days, so a divergence here tends to resolve within weeks rather than months.
The current ratio sits in the upper part of its range — 84% of the way from the low to the high of the last 391 daily candles.
When this happened before
Divergences over 212 candles: 3. Closed by a return to the norm: 2. The median return took 32 days, the longest one 44 days.
The last closed one ran from 28.07.2026 to 10.09.2026, 44 days: peak z = -2.36, LTC was expensive against INIT.
One is running right now: it started on 11.10.2026, has lasted 13 days, peak z = 3.58, INIT was expensive against LTC. It has not returned to the norm yet.
For a holder this answers not “what to do” but “how long it usually took”: the median return is 32 days. That is no guarantee — past divergences closed, this one may not.
| Period | Expensive leg | Peak z | Return |
|---|---|---|---|
| 28.07.2026 — 10.09.2026 | LTC | -2.36 | 44 d |
| 07.05.2026 — 27.05.2026 | INIT | 2.00 | 20 d |
A divergence here is the spread z-score leaving ±2σ; the return is the first value back inside ±0.5σ. Two thresholds rather than one: otherwise chatter right at the border would count as a dozen separate divergences. The first bars of the window are skipped — there z is computed on partial history.
Frequently asked
How many LTC is 1 INIT?
1 INIT is worth 0.00267395 LTC at the latest exchange quotes. The figure is the ratio of the two USDT prices and updates every minute.
What is the INIT/LTC range?
Over the last 391 daily candles the ratio traded between 0.00104171 (25.08.2026) and 0.00297418 (29.09.2025).
Are INIT and LTC correlated?
The correlation of daily log returns between INIT and LTC is 0.50, which counts as a moderate link. Log returns are used rather than prices: two rising assets correlate almost by default, joint day-to-day movement is what matters.
What is the INIT/LTC spread z-score now?
The z-score is 3.58 — the spread is stretched beyond two standard deviations. It measures how far the regression residual log(A) − β·log(B) sits from its rolling mean, in standard deviations.
Is INIT/LTC suitable for a pair trade?
The mechanics hold up: correlation is 0.50 and the spread historically covers half the way back to its mean in about 19 days. That is a description of past behaviour, not a forecast or a recommendation.
How often do INIT and LTC diverge?
Over 212 daily candles the spread left ±2σ 3 times. The median return to the norm took 32 days.
