Bull Market
A bull market is a period of sustained price increases in financial markets, typically defined as a rise of 20% or more from recent lows. Bull markets are driven by improving economic conditions, rising corporate earnings, and — critically — increasing investor optimism and risk appetite. As sentiment becomes increasingly bullish, markets often overshoot fundamental value, creating conditions that sentiment indicators can identify before a reversal occurs. The put/call ratio drops, VIX falls to complacency levels, and investor surveys show extreme optimism — all signals that contrarian traders watch closely.
At One-Signal, our system tracks these sentiment extremes in both directions — positioning systematically whether markets are rising or falling. Our signals cover Gold, Silver, Oil, Bitcoin and the S&P 500.
