How to use it

Extreme Fear (0–24)

Historically coincides with market local bottoms. Long-term investors view these zones as potential entry points. "Be fearful when others are greedy" — Warren Buffett.

Extreme Greed (75–100)

Overheating signal: the market may be overvalued. Traders use these levels to take profit or tighten stop-losses. Not a sell signal on its own.

Note: The Fear & Greed Index is a supplementary tool, not a trading signal. Use it as one factor in your analysis alongside technical and fundamental research. CryptoPulse.media does not provide investment advice.
