Ovintiv Inc. (DE) is currently running 41.4% annualised volatility over the last 21 sessions. Measured against OVV's own 13 years of daily returns rather than a market-wide average, that is the 43rd percentile — close to its own typical level, against a typical reading of 44.6%. The distinction matters because a number that looks calm for one stock is turbulent for another, and the absolute figure on its own tells you neither.

OVV is trading -50.3% below its running peak. Across 12 full years on file, its median worst-drawdown-in-a-year was -41.9%, and the deepest was -90.2% in 2020. The current drawdown is already deeper than this stock's typical annual low point, which puts it in the part of its range where past recoveries began — and where past declines also continued.

Price sits +11.4% from its 200-day moving average. Against every other day in its history, that gap ranks at the 69th percentile — a somewhat wider gap than its own norm. Over the past year OVV closed higher on 57% of sessions, and it is currently 3 sessions into a rising streak.

On October specifically: over 13 years of records, OVV finished the month higher 7 of 13 times, with a median return of +0.8% and an average of -0.7%. Its strongest month historically has been April at +12.2% on average, its weakest December at -4.7%. Seasonality is a weak signal on its own — a decade is a small sample and regimes change — but it is a real distribution rather than a rule of thumb.

Overnight risk is measurable too: OVV has opened more than 2% away from the prior close in 443 of 3,266 sessions (13.6% of the time), with the largest gaps running +15.5% and -57.8%. For anyone holding through an event, that rate is a better guide to overnight exposure than the intraday range.

All figures computed from 3,267 daily closes between 2013-10-07 and 2026-10-05, split-adjusted, recomputed daily. Percentiles are against OVV's own 13-year history, not a peer group or index.
