The Fear Index is down to 10. Are you looking to run, or looking to buy the dip?

Haha! Exactly! The Fear & Greed Index is at 10 today—extreme fear. $BTC is now at $64,780, down 3.13% in 24 hours and 10.86% over the past five trading days. Just a couple of days ago, I was saying that dropping below $70,000 was the last of the bad news. Now $64,000 is almost turning into a psychological support level.

But then again—have you noticed that not all the money has run off in a panic? $ETH closed yesterday at $1,769, down 8.33%, but then bounced 5.26% over the past hour, back to around $1,826. Some people are selling at a loss, while others are buying the dip. What looks like the end of the world to you might be someone else’s bargain-hunting opportunity.

The Meme sector is even more amusing. Its total market cap fell 12.58% in 24 hours, with red everywhere, but Siren went against the trend and rose 19.93% to $0.0322, with a market cap of $23.29 million and $4.07 million in 24-hour trading volume. Put simply, fear is fear, but there’s never a shortage of buyers willing to gamble.

Here’s how I see it, in three points: First, an index at 10 means sentiment has hit rock bottom. After that, we could either bounce or keep drifting down, but chasing rallies and panic-selling are definitely the losing strategies. Second, the 5% one-hour bounce in $ETH shows that some money is testing the waters, but that’s all it is—a test, not a reversal. Third, the harder Meme coins rise, the faster they tend to die. Small-cap coins like Siren have only a few million dollars in liquidity, so jumping in is just helping someone else cash out.

Here’s a simple rule I use: when the Fear Index falls below 15, don’t rush to buy the dip. Wait until it’s risen for two consecutive days before talking about a sentiment recovery. The index itself doesn’t predict whether prices will rise or fall; it just tells you that people everywhere are looking to run—and the more people who want to run, the cheaper the coins become. That’s a good thing, as long as you still have some ammo.

So, which side are you on? Is an index of 10 a sentiment bottom, meaning it’s time to start buying slowly, or is this just the beginning, with even $60,000 at risk? Let’s talk in the comments. Follow me, and I’ll be back at the same time tomorrow to watch the market with you.
