I was looking at today's market news, and the Fear and Greed Index has dropped again. Yesterday it was 9, today it has fallen to just 6. This indicates widespread panic in the market now.
What’s concerning is that dropping below this level is very rare. Looking at history, such low indices have only occurred twice — in June 2022 and August 2019. Back then, the market was completely broken.
The index actually measures several things — price fluctuations, trading volume, social media discussions, market surveys, Bitcoin dominance, and Google Trends. When all these combined reach such low levels, it means people are truly scared.
