How to read it
A 0-100 sentiment composite. Below 25 is Extreme Fear, where the crowd has already sold and forced sellers set prices. Above 75 is Extreme Greed, where the marginal buyer is already in. The middle is noise. Use it strictly as a contrarian input and never alone: fear can stay extreme for months in a real bear market.

Context
The index spent weeks in single digits at the 2022 bottom near $16,000, and pinned in the 90s near both 2021 tops. Its components, volatility, momentum, social volume, dominance, and search trends, all measure the same crowd from different angles, which is exactly why it works as a contrarian thermometer.
