Each analytical family answers a different question.
| Concept | Explanation | |---|---| | Fundamentals | What the asset may be worth based on economic quality and future benefits. | | Technical signals | How price, volume, momentum, and volatility are currently behaving. | | Sentiment | What participants expect, fear, prefer, or are positioned for. | | Market context | The macro, liquidity, policy, and event environment surrounding the asset. |
A stock can be fundamentally attractive while sentiment remains negative. A crypto asset can have strong momentum while positioning is dangerously crowded. These are not contradictions; each analytical family answers a different question.
