What is Market Mood Index (MMI)?
The Market Mood Index (MMI) is a fear and greed gauge for the Indian stock market on a scale of 0 to 100: readings below 30 mean extreme fear, 30 to 50 fear, 50 to 70 greed and 70 and above extreme greed.

How do traders read the MMI?
Extreme fear (below 30) often comes when markets are oversold and is a zone where patient buyers start looking. Extreme greed (70 and above) often comes when markets are stretched and is a poor time to chase new longs.
Direction matters as much as level. MMI climbing out of extreme fear reads very differently from MMI sliding down from greed into fear, even if both show 35 today.
Is the MMI a buy or sell signal?
No. It is a sentiment backdrop. Markets can stay in extreme greed for weeks in a strong trend. Use it to adjust how aggressive you are, and take entries from price and the option chain.
