What's driving the score
The score is a weighted sum of five measures taken from price and volume. The longer the bar, the more that measure moved the number; the figure beside it is how many points of the score it contributed.
Volume
20% of the formulaTrading activity against its own recent average, scored 100 out of 100. Rising volume behind a move makes it more credible.
Volatility
15% of the formulaHow violently price is swinging, scored 28 out of 100. Calm markets score higher here than panicked ones.
Market structure
15% of the formulaWhether highs and lows are building a trend or breaking down, scored 20 out of 100.
Overbought / oversold
30% of the formulaHow stretched price is against its own recent range, scored 0 out of 100. This carries the most weight of the five.
Momentum
20% of the formulaThe strength and direction of the current move, scored 0 out of 100.
The five contributions add up to the score of 27.3. A reading is high because specific measures are high, not because the market is vaguely optimistic.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ethereum Classic's Fear & Greed Index today?
The score at the top of this page is ETC's live Fear & Greed reading, from 0 (extreme fear) to 100 (extreme greed), updated through the day. Unlike a single market-wide index, it's calculated from Ethereum Classic's own price and volume, so it reflects the mood around this asset specifically. Check the gauge above for the current number and zone.
What is the Ethereum Classic Fear & Greed Index?
It's a 0-to-100 gauge of market sentiment for ETC, where low readings lean toward fear (the crowd is cautious, sometimes a sign of undervaluation) and high readings toward greed (optimism that can tip into overheating). It distils Ethereum Classic's market conditions into a single, easy-to-read mood score.
Is this specific to Ethereum Classic or the whole market?
It's specific to Ethereum Classic. The score is computed from ETC's own candles, so two assets can sit in completely different zones at the same time. That's different from a single market-wide sentiment index — this reading reflects what's happening in Ethereum Classic alone.
How is ETC's Fear & Greed score calculated?
It blends five factors from Ethereum Classic's own market data into one weighted score: overbought and oversold momentum oscillators (the largest input), price momentum, trading volume and money flow, volatility, and market structure. Each is scored and combined, then mapped to a sentiment zone from Extreme Fear to Extreme Greed.
Does extreme fear mean I should buy ETC?
Not on its own. Extreme fear can flag a possible reversal — the 'be greedy when others are fearful' idea — and extreme greed can warn of froth, but sentiment is just one input and can stay stretched for a while. Confirm with technical analysis and your own research before acting.
How often does the Ethereum Classic score update, and can I get alerts?
Ethereum Classic's sentiment is recomputed roughly every 15 minutes as fresh price and volume data comes in, so it tracks recent conditions rather than every tick. Create a free Flicker account and set alerts to be notified when Ethereum Classic flips between fear and greed zones.
