Sentiment vs. Price: Identifying Divergences
"Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful." – Warren Buffett.
This quote is the foundation of Sentiment Analysis. In crypto, social sentiment (Twitter, Reddit, News) often leads price action. But the most powerful signal is a Divergence.
What is a Sentiment Divergence?
It occurs when the Price of an asset and the Mood of the crowd move in opposite directions.
Case 1: Bearish Divergence (The Trap)
- Price: Making new highs (All-time highs!).
- Sentiment: Beginning to unexpected drop or flatten.
- Meaning: The hype is dying down, buying pressure is exhausted. A crash is imminent.
- Action: Tighten Stop-Losses.
Case 2: Bullish Divergence (The Opportunity)
- Price: Making new lows (Everyone is bleeding).
- Sentiment: Starting to tick up (Smart money is accumulating).
- Meaning: Sellers are exhausted. A reversal is coming.
- Action: Start a DCA Strategy to catch the bottom.
How our AI Measures Sentiment
We don't just count tweets. Our NLP (Natural Language Processing) engine analyzes:
- Volume: How many people are talking?
- Tone: Are they using words like "moon," "rekt," "buy," "scam"?
- Source Authority: A tweet from Vitalik Buterin outweighs 1,000 bots.
By combining Technical Analysis with Sentiment Analysis, our Confidence Scores become exponentially more accurate.
