Key numbers
over 357 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 0.53, with a hedge ratio of 0.60. Signals from this pair carry more noise than on a tightly linked one.
The spread currently sits at 3.56 standard deviations above its rolling mean — NEAR is expensive relative to CAKE by the standards of this window.
Reversion is slow: the spread needs roughly 47 days to cover half the way back to its mean. A position would have to be held for a long time.
The current ratio sits mid-range — 63% of the way from the low to the high of the last 357 daily candles.
Frequently asked
How many CAKE is 1 NEAR?
1 NEAR is worth 1.67687 CAKE at the latest exchange quotes. The figure is the ratio of the two USDT prices and updates every minute.
What is the NEAR/CAKE range?
Over the last 357 daily candles the ratio traded between 0.656746 (08.10.2025) and 2.27991 (03.06.2026).
Are NEAR and CAKE correlated?
The correlation of daily log returns between NEAR and CAKE is 0.53, 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 NEAR/CAKE spread z-score now?
The z-score is 3.56 — 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 NEAR/CAKE suitable for a pair trade?
The mechanics hold up: correlation is 0.53 and the spread historically covers half the way back to its mean in about 47 days. That is a description of past behaviour, not a forecast or a recommendation.
