Mood Score is MarketMoodIQ’s headline indicator for how the social crowd is talking about an asset right now. It rolls five separate sub-signals into a single 0–100 number so you can scan a leaderboard at a glance without parsing five charts per row.
How it’s built
The composite is a weighted blend of:
- Sentiment — average tonality of posts mentioning the asset (positive vs negative);
- Social velocity — how the current posting rate compares with the 7-day baseline;
- Engagement quality — likes, replies, and reposts per post (filters out low-effort spam);
- Creator growth — whether new contributors are joining the conversation, or it’s the same accounts;
- Abnormality risk — penalises sudden coordinated bursts that look botted.
How to read it
- 70+ — clearly constructive: sentiment is positive, attention is rising, and the conversation looks organic.
- 50–70 — neutral to mildly positive. The asset is being discussed, but without strong directional energy.
- 30–50 — defensive. Volume may still be high, but tonality has turned cautious.
- Below 30 — actively negative. Look for what’s driving it before reacting (depeg fear, hack, regulatory news, etc.).
Common misreadings
Mood Score is an attention-and-tonality reading, not a price prediction. A high mood score doesn’t mean an asset will go up — it means the social crowd is currently constructive about it. Always cross-check against the sentiment chart, the social-volume chart, and the price action before forming a thesis.
