The Australian market's emotional barometer

FearAlert's ASX sentiment score is a composite measure for the Australian Securities Exchange, calculated from five market factors: momentum (ASX 200 vs its 125-day moving average), RSI, 52-week range position, market breadth, and realised volatility. It scores overall market sentiment from 0 (Extreme Fear) to 100 (Extreme Greed).

The same contrarian principle applies to the ASX as to every market — when sentiment hits extreme fear, Australian stocks are often approaching a sentiment-driven bottom. FearAlert turns that insight into an automated email alert so you never miss the signal.

Extreme Fear
