Every signal is turned into a percentile: today's value is ranked against the same signal's past two years (504 trading days for stocks, 730 days for crypto). Signals where a high value means fear are inverted, so 100 always points to greed. The market score is the weighted average of its signal scores.
0 to 24 is extreme fear, 25 to 44 fear, 45 to 55 neutral, 56 to 75 greed, 76 to 100 extreme greed.
Global stocks refresh on weekdays at 21:30 UTC, after the US close. Asian stocks refresh on weekdays at 21:45 UTC, also after the US close, since their signals use US-listed funds. European stocks refresh on weekdays at 18:00 UTC, after the European close. Crypto refreshes daily at 00:05 UTC. Between updates the page serves the stored score. Nothing recomputes when you load the page.
All inputs are daily closing prices from Twelve Data. Stock signals use liquid ETF proxies (ACWI, IEF, GLD, UUP, GHYG, LQD, EEM, EFA and 12 regional ETFs). European signals use euro-denominated UCITS ETFs (EXSA for STOXX Europe 600, IEGA for euro government bonds, IHYG and IEAC for euro credit, and 19 STOXX Europe 600 sector ETFs). Asian signals use US-listed dollar ETFs (AAXJ for MSCI All Country Asia ex Japan, FXY for the Japanese yen, EWJ for Japan, and 12 Asian country ETFs). Crypto signals use the 20 largest USD pairs by market capitalization, excluding stablecoins and other pegged assets, and that basket refreshes monthly.
The index reads prices only. Volatility is measured from realized price moves, not an implied volatility index such as the VIX. It uses no surveys, no put/call or other options data, no trading volume, no fund flows, and no social media, so it can miss sentiment that has not reached prices yet. Signals with missing data are dropped for the day and the remaining weights are rescaled, which the partial flag discloses.
The construction follows the Kansas City Fed's risk-on/risk-off gauge, CNN's Fear & Greed Index, Alternative.me's Crypto Fear & Greed Index and CoinMarketCap's index. Savyy's version differs in that every component, weight and formula is published on this page.
