Something I've noticed studying crypto market cycles: the retail sentiment indicator that's most reliable isn't on any chart — it's Google Trends. When "Bitcoin" searches on Google peak, you're usually within a few weeks of a major market top. When searches are near multi-year lows, you're often near a bottom. Why? Because retail money flows into crypto when it's in the news — at the peak of the rally. When crypto crashes and stops being newsworthy, retail leaves and institutional accumulation quietly begins. Current Google Trends for "Bitcoin": elevated but not at the 2021 peak levels. This suggests we're in a late-stage bull market but haven't hit the mainstream FOMO phase yet. Other sentiment indicators worth tracking: - Crypto Fear & Greed Index (above 75 = caution) - Exchange inflows (rising = potential selling pressure) - Stablecoin market cap (rising = dry powder waiting to enter) Do you use sentiment indicators in your crypto analysis? Which ones do you find most reliable?
