"Why our data works when everything else fails 🎯 We don't guess. We measure: - Real institutional positioning (not retail sentiment) - Cross-asset Greek dynamics (not single-stock technicals) - Multi-timeframe structure (not random levels) - Volume-weighted flow (not social media noise) When you see the ACTUAL data institutions use. When you understand what REALLY moves prices. When you follow PROVEN patterns. That's when everything changes 📊 Data doesn't lie. Everything else does"
