TSDAR - Smart vs Retail Attention RatioTRINITY EXCLUSIVE
Trinity-exclusive composite setting institutional and developer attention against retail attention. Above-neutral readings mean the first group weighs more in the score ; below-neutral readings mean retail attention weighs more. The score measures relative attention : it measures neither purchases, nor sales, nor capital flows.
Trinity exclusive model
This metric is a proprietary Trinity Insights model. Its formula, inputs, weights and parameters are NOT disclosed. The page documents only the output (bounded scale, interpretation zones, historical context). Access to the score and its time series is via the REST API and the MCP server, subject to the required tier.
What is it?
TSDAR describes relative attention from institutions and developers in the context of retail attention from public searches. Above 50, the first group dominates relatively in the score; below, retail attention dominates. A relative position does not mean each category rises or falls in absolute terms. Construction is proprietary and unpublished.
How to read
Read the score around 50, its neutral reference. Colored zones locate readings on this scale; they do not describe purchases or sales. A high reading expresses relative dominance of institutional and developer attention without proving accumulation.
Key zones
Displayed bands are 40-45, 45-55 and 55-60. They provide reading references around 50, not probabilities of price gains or losses. Low readings describe relative retail dominance; high readings describe relative institutional and developer dominance.
What to observe
Compare persistence on either side of 50 and changes in the attention regime. Place price alongside the score to observe their respective trajectories without turning divergence into evidence of purchases, sales or institutional flows.
Historical context
The current version uses public categories of institutional disclosures, developer activity and search interest. Video creator audiences are not part of this version. Event markers help locate observations without establishing their cause.
Expert notes
⚠️ Trinity Exclusive Model - Public categories are institutional attention, developer activity and retail search interest. Score construction is proprietary and undisclosed. The score cannot reconstruct participants' transactions.
Common mistakes to avoid
A high score does not demonstrate accumulation and a low score does not demonstrate distribution. Relative attention is neither a capital flow nor a price forecast. Institutional and developer categories do not identify purchases by individual participants.
