🐋 $BTC Market sentiment thermometer: Fear & Greed Index 51 (neutral), up 3 from yesterday.
Sentiment indicators can be useful for position management, provided you understand how they’re calculated.
The market momentum and volume component compares current trading volume with the averages over the past 30 and 90 days. If volume keeps rising during an upswing, that’s counted as greed.
A reading in the neutral zone means sentiment isn’t clearly tilted in either direction, so the index itself offers limited clues at that point.
Cross-checking several indicators is more reliable than looking at just one, but even more indicators can’t provide a definite answer.
