What the crypto market looks like today

The readings that decided past verdicts, recomputed every day. This describes the market; it is not a signal to buy or sell.

downup

Mixed picture: the signals disagree, there is no clear direction.

Pointing up: 2 · pointing down: 1 · neutral: 3

  • Bitcoin is 11.3% above its 200-day average: the long-term trend is up.
  • 7 of 13 coins are above their 200-day average: the market is split.
  • Price swings are small (25% a year): a quiet market.
  • Mood: 51 of 100, neutral.
  • Money is leaving: the supply of stablecoins fell 2.2% in 30 days.
  • The only rule that passed its test (H-020) is in the market: no unusual wave of bitcoin being sent to exchanges.

What this means. In a market without direction, trend rules switch in and out often and lose money on fees. Patience matters more than action.

A plain-words summary of the signals on this page, recomputed every day. A summary of data, not investment advice. Patterns from the past can stop working.
