How these numbers are produced

The base case combines 7-day and 30-day momentum into a forward drift, anchored on a mean-reversion target derived from the coin's all-time high scaled by its market-cap rank. Sentiment (Fear & Greed) provides a ±5–15% overlay. Bear/bull bands are ± a horizon-scaled volatility multiplier.
