Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about the ProfitShield™ market metrics system.

How often are ProfitShield™ metrics updated?

ProfitShield™ metrics are updated at different intervals depending on the specific metric and data source. The Position Shield (Short/Long Ratio) and Volatility Score are updated in real-time using Binance API data. The Overall Rating is calculated every 10 minutes to provide you with the most current market conditions.

What does the Short/Long Ratio tell me about the market?

The Short/Long Ratio shows the distribution of short and long positions in the market. A ratio of "60/40" means 60% of positions are short and 40% are long. When this ratio reaches extreme levels (e.g., 30/70 or 70/30), it often signals a potential market reversal, as too many traders are positioned on one side of the market. This contrarian indicator can help you identify potential turning points.

How should I use the Volatility Score to adjust my trading?

The Volatility Score helps you match your trading strategy to current market conditions. In high volatility environments (scores 7-10), trend-following strategies and breakout trades tend to perform better. In low volatility environments (scores 1-3), range-bound strategies like buying support and selling resistance may be more appropriate. By adapting your approach to match market conditions, you can optimize your risk-reward ratio.

Does ProfitShield™ have access to my trading account?

No. ProfitShield™ connects securely to your Binance account through API keys that you control. These API keys are set to read-only permissions, ensuring that the system can never execute trades, withdraw funds, or take any action that might affect your account. You maintain full custody and control of your funds at all times, with the dashboard providing information only.

How accurate is the Overall Rating as a market predictor?

The Overall Rating is designed as a real-time health indicator rather than a predictive tool. However, historical analysis shows that ratings above 7 have corresponded with positive market performance approximately 68% of the time over the following 48 hours, while ratings below 4 have preceded market declines about 72% of the time. Use this as one of many tools in your trading decision process, not as a standalone signal.

How should I use the Volatility Score in my trading?

The Volatility Score helps you choose the right strategy for current market conditions. High scores (7-10) suggest trending markets where directional strategies work well. Low scores (1-3) indicate ranging markets where mean-reversion strategies may be more effective.

What market data is used to calculate these metrics?

We use a combination of on-chain data, exchange APIs (primarily Binance), technical indicators, and institutional flow tracking to calculate our metrics. This multi-factor approach ensures a comprehensive view of market conditions.
