Analyzing Market Sentiment

Overview

This skill provides comprehensive cryptocurrency market sentiment analysis by combining multiple data sources:

Fear & Greed Index: Market-wide sentiment from Alternative.me
News Sentiment: Keyword-based analysis of recent crypto news
Market Momentum: Price and volume trends from CoinGecko

Key Capabilities:

Composite sentiment score (0-100) with classification
Coin-specific sentiment analysis
Detailed breakdown of sentiment components
Multiple output formats (table, JSON, CSV)

Prerequisites

Before using this skill, ensure:

Python 3.8+ is installed
requests library is available: pip install requests
Internet connectivity for API access (Alternative.me, CoinGecko)
Optional: crypto-news-aggregator skill for enhanced news analysis

Instructions

Step 1: Assess User Intent

Determine what sentiment analysis the user needs:

Overall market: No specific coin, general sentiment
Coin-specific: Extract coin symbol (BTC, ETH, etc.)
Quick vs detailed: Quick score or full breakdown

Step 2: Execute Sentiment Analysis

Run the sentiment analyzer with appropriate options:

# Quick sentiment check (default)
python {baseDir}/scripts/sentiment_analyzer.py

# Coin-specific sentiment
python {baseDir}/scripts/sentiment_analyzer.py --coin BTC

# Detailed analysis with component breakdown
python {baseDir}/scripts/sentiment_analyzer.py --detailed

# Export to JSON
python {baseDir}/scripts/sentiment_analyzer.py --format json --output sentiment.json

# Custom time period
python {baseDir}/scripts/sentiment_analyzer.py --period 7d --detailed

Step 3: Present Results

Format and present the sentiment analysis:

Show composite score and classification
Explain what the sentiment means
Highlight any extreme readings
For detailed mode, show component breakdown

Command-Line Options

Option	Description	Default
`--coin`	Analyze specific coin (BTC, ETH, etc.)	All market
`--period`	Time period (1h, 4h, 24h, 7d)	24h
`--detailed`	Show full component breakdown	false
`--format`	Output format (table, json, csv)	table
`--output`	Output file path	stdout
`--weights`	Custom weights (e.g., "news:0.5,fng:0.3,momentum:0.2")	Default
`--verbose`	Enable verbose output	false

Sentiment Classifications

Score Range	Classification	Description
0-20	Extreme Fear	Market panic, potential bottom
21-40	Fear	Cautious sentiment, bearish
41-60	Neutral	Balanced, no strong bias
61-80	Greed	Optimistic, bullish sentiment
