>Retail Mood is a tool that helps traders understand investor sentiment by surveying retail investors. It provides a snapshot of the collective mood and attitude of these investors towards a particular market or security, allowing traders to gauge their sentiment.

Fair point - It's not exactly a leading indicator, but we also can't label it as solely lagging.

The most leading indicator is the market, right. And so, here is that indicator sliced in a way you probably haven't seen before. Orange line is volatility skew by expiration, blue line is price. Let me know if you need some TLDR and DD on volatility skew - Didn't want to overload you with info.

I have it for the VIX too. But in short, no pun intended. All my data is pointing sideways at the moment.
