Pillars (hover tooltips)

Momentum — Are prices trending up or down?
Participation — How many people are trading?
Liquidity — How easy do trades go through?
Supply Pressure — Are listings piling up or clearing?
Valuation Gap — Price vs our modelled fair value.
Stress — How jumpy is the market right now?

These six cover price action, activity, execution, supply, value context, and risk—enough to be useful without being a black box.

How to read it

Rising gauge on stronger Liquidity & Participation → trades are clearing and more wallets are active; confidence is improving.
Falling gauge with higher Stress & Supply Pressure → volatility is up and listings are building; risk appetite is fading.
Neutral → mixed signals; often a transition or consolidation.

What moves the pillars (plain English)

Momentum: recent up-moves push the gauge higher; down-moves pull it lower.
Participation: more unique buyers/sellers and more sales vs normal = warmer market.
Liquidity: higher turnover and steady trade-through = easier execution.
Supply Pressure: rising listed share = more sell-side overhang; falling share = relief.
Valuation Gap: trading above (greed) or below (fear) our fair-value aggregate (NFTi).
Stress: bigger, faster swings increase uncertainty and tilt toward fear.

Stability without the wiggles

Uses robust baselines (so one odd hour doesn’t whipsaw the gauge).
Applies sensible caps to keep outliers from dominating.
Bands are fixed, so “Fear” and “Greed” keep the same meaning over time.

FAQs

How often is this updated? Hourly. We also store a daily “close” for charts and history.

Is this only about prices? No. Prices matter, but we also consider activity, execution, supply, value context, and risk via the six pillars above.

Can a single collection swing the market? No. The market view uses liquidity-aware aggregation with caps so no single collection dominates.
