Use it when you want to see what is moving, save a signal for later, or send a market narrative into Content Forge. ## Where to find it Open Intelligence > Market Signals. The direct route is `/signals`. ## Who can use it Market Signals is available to signed-in workspace members on active workspaces. It is useful straight out of the box, before you configure anything. Sources connected to your workspace are boosted and labeled so you can separate public market movement from signals coming from your own monitored sources. ## Main tabs ### Top Signals Top Signals shows the strongest current narratives across the whole market. Use this tab to scan the market quickly and find stories that are gaining source coverage. ### From My Sources From My Sources focuses on signals that include sources your workspace follows or monitors. These cards are badged so you can tell when a narrative is connected to your own source graph. ### Saved Saved keeps the signals you marked for follow-up. Use this tab for ideas you want to revisit, brief, or turn into content later. ## Signal cards Each signal card summarizes one market story, grouped so ten write-ups of the same event arrive as one entry. Cards can include: * Title: the short name of the signal or narrative. * Summary: the source-backed explanation of what is happening. * Rising badge: appears on stories that are genuinely developing rather than one outlet writing about itself. * Chains and sectors: filters that show the market areas connected to the signal. * Source count: how many sources are reporting the story. * Mention count: how many individual mentions sit behind it. * Top sources: the highest-signal sources contributing to the narrative. * Age: how recently the story was updated. ## Expand mentions Open a signal to review the underlying mentions. Mentions help you understand where the narrative came from before you use it in content. Use the mention list to: * Check source links. * Compare how different sources frame the same topic. * Decide whether the signal is strong enough for a post, thread, brief, or research task. ## Save and hide signals Use Save when a signal is useful but you are not ready to act on it. Use Hide when a signal is not relevant to your workspace. Hiding helps keep your feed focused on the narratives you actually want to watch. ## Chain filters When chain filters are available, use them to narrow the feed to the chains you care about. This is useful when your content strategy is chain-specific or when you are tracking a focused market segment. ## Use in Studio Use in Studio sends the signal title and summary into Content Forge so you can draft from the market context without copying details by hand. Good uses include: * A short market update. * A thread explaining the narrative. * A newsletter section. * A script outline. * A brand-specific commentary draft. Review the source context before publishing. Market Signals is a research and drafting input, not a replacement for editorial review. ## Relationship to other intelligence tools Market Signals shows source-backed narratives and market movement. On-Chain Intelligence is better when you need wallet, token, DeFi, or execution-level research. Content Optimization is better when you want to improve packaging, voice, platform fit, competitors, experiments, or algorithm alignment. ## Empty states If From My Sources is empty, your workspace may not have matching followed sources yet. Use Top Signals while your source set grows. If Saved is empty, save useful signals from Top Signals or From My Sources. ## Best practices * Start with Top Signals to understand the market baseline. * Use From My Sources when you need workspace-specific relevance. * Save signals that are useful but not urgent. * Expand mentions before drafting anything sensitive or time-critical. * Use in Studio for first drafts, then refine the content in Content Forge. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://thecontentforge.gitbook.io/thecontentforge-docs/feature-guides/market-signals.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
