What is one really to do with the metrics? Right now, HOT has the highest support/cap % for a lesser known coin. Does it mean to buy HOT?...

In crypto, it's always better to do your own research instead of following buy recommendations. That said, you can use the numbers in your research: for example, if two coins have a similar market cap, but one has much higher buy support, then it might be a better investment.

Buy support shows demand for this coin.
