The Crypto Fear & Greed Index condenses market mood into a single number from 0 (extreme fear) to 100 (extreme greed). It's compiled by Alternative.me from volatility, momentum, social media, surveys, Bitcoin dominance and search trends, and it's one of the inputs to every signal on this site.
Scores from 0 to 24 are extreme fear, 25 to 49 fear, 50 to 54 neutral, 55 to 74 greed and 75 to 100 extreme greed. Fear usually shows up after sharp drops, greed after long rallies. Source: Alternative.me.
As a small contrarian input. Extreme fear nudges signals slightly toward calls and extreme greed nudges them slightly toward puts, because extremes in crowd mood have often come before turning points. It's a light touch — trend, momentum and Bitcoin's lead carry far more weight.

Not on its own. Extreme fear has often appeared near market lows, but fear can persist while prices keep falling. The site uses it only as a small contrarian adjustment.
