Formion Pulse — Market Narrative
Formion Pulse: one score from many voices.
Live recording: Pulse Score and BTC bias, the source filter, Pulse vs market history and the X Influencer Desk.
Formion Pulse answers one question other tools ignore: what are the big voices and the crowd actually saying right now?
It is deliberately different from a Fear & Greed gauge or a long/short ratio (those measure positioning). Pulse reads the narrative — crypto X (Twitter) traders, YouTube influencers, social chatter and headlines — and blends it with price into a single Pulse Score (0–100), where 50 = balanced, higher = more bullish narrative.

What it watches
Section titled “What it watches”- 𝕏 Influencer Desk — recent posts from a curated roster of crypto traders, each classified bull / bear / neutral with a one-line thesis and the coin it refers to. When an influencer posts a bare chart screenshot, a vision model reads the chart itself — drawn levels, arrows, long/short annotations — and labels it (“CHART READ” badge).
- ▶ YouTube Desk — the latest videos from top crypto channels, each scored bull / bear / neutral by title + description.
- Crowd & Social — recent market headlines and social chatter, synthesised into a short read with a bull/bear split and a mood (fearful → euphoric).
- 😨 Fear & Greed and ₿
BTC Bias — global mood plus BTC price and multi-horizon momentum (24h / 7d / vs 50-period SMA).
The X Influencer Desk — tracked posts, each classified bullish, bearish or neutral.
Sentiment history & filtering
Section titled “Sentiment history & filtering”- Sentiment-vs-Price history — the Pulse Score plotted against the BTC price over the last 30 days, so you can see how the narrative moved relative to the market.
- Source filter — mute or un-mute any account or channel. The Pulse Score and desks recompute instantly for you — so you can see the market through only the voices you trust. Your selection is remembered on your device.

Trader records and badges
Section titled “Trader records and badges”Pulse also keeps a measured record for each followed trader. Trader records are in preview and are being rolled out step by step.
Measured since 2026-11-01
Section titled “Measured since 2026-11-01”Live tracking started on 2026-11-01 (00:00 UTC). Every idea a trader posts from that day on is followed from the moment it is posted. Ideas posted before that date are marked Archive: they are still shown and clearly labelled. The badge and every measured number (accuracy, win rate, average, confidence range) use calls measured since 1 Oct 2025 (00:00 UTC); older posts are kept only as History (not measured) to describe the trader’s style and are never part of the badge. The card shows the live part separately (“Live since 2026-11-01”), so archive ideas never inflate the live number.
What counts as a call
Section titled “What counts as a call”A counted call is measured on the trader’s own terms, each idea once:
- His plan outcome — when his entry actually traded, the result of his plan: his take-profit or stop-loss, whichever came first on the price path, or the exit he announced himself.
- Otherwise, direction on his horizon — if he gave no exit, the price move in his direction over his own typical holding time (the median of his earlier closed trades; 3 days until he has 5 closed trades), counted from the moment his entry traded.
- Every number is after costs (0.12 % round trip). An idea whose entry never traded is not a trade and is not counted. Only levels the trader wrote or drew are used — Formion never adds an entry, stop or target of its own.
Badge rules
Section titled “Badge rules”| Badge | Rule |
|---|---|
| Verified | At least 30 counted calls, the lower bound of the 95 % confidence interval of the average result per call is above 0, and a multiple-testing check across all traders (Benjamini–Hochberg) passes |
| Profitable (early) | At least 10 counted calls and the lower bound of the 95 % confidence interval is above 0 |
| Collecting data | Everything else — too few calls, or the result is not yet clear |
A badge is never negative: Pulse never labels a trader as bad. A badge describes measured past calls only; it is not a promise of future results.
Labels on single ideas
Section titled “Labels on single ideas”- Timeframe is our reading — he wrote “close above / below a level” without a timeframe; the level is his, the 1h and 1d readings of that close are ours, and the weaker number is shown.
- Uncertain outcome (1h vs 1d) — the same case, but the 1h and the 1d reading give a different outcome. The idea is never left out: the weaker of the two outcomes is used. If only one reading’s entry traded and that trade gained, the weaker outcome is “no trade”, so the idea is shown as not triggered.
