Fear and Greed Index Sensor Node

The Fear & Greed Index is an index that represents sentiment towards Bitcoin and the Crypto market. This node acts as both a continuous or triggered only sensor node. When sensor mode is selected this node will output a message whenever the Fear & Greed Index is updated. Then sensor mode is deactivated, this node will output a message only when manually triggered. The Fear & Greed Index is updated every 24 hours.

In sensor mode, you can send a test message by clicking the square on the left side of the node. It will replay a message that matches your configured filter. If it cannot find such a message, one will be emitted that doesn’t match the filter.
