What this indicator measures
Relevant tops can precede traps, reversals, or sideways markets. Very low attention often lines up with compressed volatility before expansion.
Cycle context
Relevant tops in attention matter most late-cycle or around obvious bullish headlines.
False positive
A single attention spike can fade without price reversal if leverage is not crowded.
Best timeframes
Weekly context for attention extremes; daily checks around major narratives.
