Are Market Trends Even Useful Anymore Without Context?

[Akure]

Finally someone said it. The market’s running on reflexive narratives amplified by bots and algo-traders chasing volatility pockets. Without layering in real contextual signals like liquidity flows, rate decisions, stablecoin supply shifts, and on-chain behavioral clusters, you’re basically trading noise. Surface narratives move fast, but underlying data shows where capital sticks.

Absolutely agree with this perspective. The market has become increasingly reactive to manufactured narratives rather than grounded, data-driven catalysts. Genuine value discovery is being drowned out by short-term social triggers engineered for liquidity grabs. Contextual data macro policy changes, on-chain flows, regulatory actions, and real economic indicators should be the foundation for positioning in this space. Surface-level trends without substance are noise, and those fixated on them risk being exit liquidity for smarter, better-informed participants.
