This paper introduces a novel framework for auditing volatility forecasts, moving beyond aggregate accuracy metrics like RMSE and MAE. The proposed method identifies latent market regimes and evaluates forecast reliability within these specific conditions. Applied to cryptocurrency and ETF data, the audit revealed that models with strong average accuracy can still exhibit significant regime-specific biases and tail underpredictions, highlighting the need for more nuanced forecast evaluation.
