Data Interpretation Rules

Trade Score (0-100)

Score Components

• Temporal (-10 to +10): Time-of-day volatility adjustment. Peak volatility = Tuesday 8 AM CST.
• Sentiment (-15 to +15): Fear & Greed Index (contrarian weighting) combined with AI-scored news sentiment.
• L/S Score (-25 to +25, 1.5x weight): Contrarian Long/Short ratio signal. This is the DOMINANT FACTOR in the trade score. When retail is heavily long, the score pushes bearish, and vice versa.
• Liquidity Multiplier (0.5-2.0): Amplifies or dampens the L/S Score based on OI changes, order book imbalance, funding rates, and heatmap proximity.
• Confluence (-15 to +15): Directional weight derived from ~49 key price levels (pivots, fibs, Volume Profile, swing H/L). Positive = price above key levels (bullish), negative = below (bearish).

Long/Short Ratios — CONTRARIAN INTERPRETATION

• avg_ls_ratio > 1.5 = retail heavily long = BEARISH signal (fade the crowd)
• avg_ls_ratio < 0.7 = retail heavily short = BULLISH signal (fade the crowd)
• avg_ls_ratio ~ 1.0 = balanced = NEUTRAL

Always interpret L/S ratios as a contrarian indicator. The crowd is usually wrong at extremes.

Heatmap Zones — Liquidity Magnets

• Price is drawn TOWARD liquidation clusters before reversing.
• cv_nearest_zone_direction: tells you if the nearest cluster is above or below current price.
• Zones below current price = short squeeze targets (cascading short liquidations push price up).
• Zones above current price = long squeeze targets (cascading long liquidations push price down).

CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta)

• Positive cvd_1h = net buying pressure = bullish
• Negative cvd_1h = net selling pressure = bearish
• Compare cvd_1h vs cvd_15m for trend acceleration/deceleration.

Confluence Direction (from /v1/levels)

• confluence_direction: BULLISH or BEARISH — the net directional weight of all ~49 price levels.
• confluence_direction_strength: 0.0 to 1.0 — how strong the directional agreement is.
• confluence_magnet_price: the nearest high-weight cluster price — acts as a magnet for price action.

Crypto News Sentiment (from /v1/news/crypto)

• Scan headlines for bullish/bearish bias to gauge market narrative.
• Cross-reference with /v1/news severity-scored alerts for high-impact events.
• Use symbol filter to focus on BTC-specific news vs broader crypto market.

Economic Calendar Events (from /v1/calendar)

• Events with impact: "High" can cause 2-5% BTC swings within hours.
• Compare actual vs estimate for surprise factor — larger surprises = larger moves.
• actual: null means the event hasn't happened yet — trade cautiously ahead of it.
• Key events: FOMC Rate Decision, CPI, Non-Farm Payrolls, GDP, PCE Price Index.

Historical OHLCV (from /v1/market/history)

• Use for trend context: compare current price to 7d/30d/90d range.
• Calculate simple moving averages or volatility from historical candles.
• Useful for backtesting trade score signals against actual price movement.

Swing Trade Status

• new — freshly generated, not yet activated
• active — entry conditions met, trade is live
• modified — parameters updated since original generation (check rationale for changes)
