Indicator Notes｜$BTC ｜Fear & Greed Index 34｜Fear｜Up 8 from yesterday
First, a definition: “Fear” and “Greed” are just labels for ranges. Values within the same range can still differ quite a bit, so looking at the specific value gives you more detail than looking only at the label.
A common interpretation: When readings are extreme, market swings are usually significant too. At times like these, it’s even more important to manage your position size rather than rush to add to it.
Sizing your orders by working backward from where you’ll place your stop-loss is much steadier than placing them on a whim.
