Cycle Context

Bitcoin cycle top signals dashboard

Four widely watched Bitcoin cycle indicators, each checked against a documented threshold and summarized into one scoreboard. Built from the same backend-calculated series that power the Kodexius Data Library.

This dashboard is a context tool, not a top-caller. The thresholds are our documented choices based on how each indicator behaved in past cycles, and past behavior does not guarantee the next cycle looks the same. Nothing on this page is financial advice.

How to read the scoreboard

No single indicator has a clean record of calling Bitcoin tops, but several of them firing at the same time has historically been rare outside late-cycle conditions. That is the idea behind this scoreboard: instead of staring at one chart, check how many independent lenses (trend momentum, on-chain valuation, long-horizon price extension, and sentiment) agree that the market is running hot.

With zero or one signal triggered, the market is not in a configuration that resembled previous cycle tops. Two or more triggering together is historically unusual and worth attention, especially when the sentiment reading confirms rather than leads. Treat the count as context for position sizing and risk decisions, not as a sell signal on its own.

The signals, explained

Pi Cycle Top

Compares the 111-day moving average of BTC price with 2× the 350-day moving average. The upward crossover (the fast line moving above the slow one) marked the 2013, 2017, and 2021 bull market peaks within a few days. Our dashboard shows the current spread between the two lines and flags the signal as triggered when the 111DMA is at or above the 350DMA ×2. See the full history on the Pi Cycle Top chart.

MVRV Z-Score

Measures how far Bitcoin's market cap has stretched above its realized cap (the aggregate cost basis of all coins), normalized by the historical volatility of market cap. Readings above 7 have historically clustered near cycle tops, while readings below 0 marked deep bear market bottoms. We flag the signal at Z ≥ 7 and show the current zone alongside the raw value. Explore the MVRV Z-Score chart for the full picture.

2-Year MA Multiplier

Philip Swift's Investor Tool frames Bitcoin against its 2-year (730-day) moving average and a 5× extension of it. Price below the 2-year average historically marked accumulation zones; price above the 5× band coincided with euphoric cycle peaks. We show the current multiplier (BTC price divided by the 2-year average) and flag the signal when it reaches 5×. The 2-Year MA Multiplier chart shows both bands over full price history.

Fear & Greed Index

A daily crypto sentiment score from 0 to 100 combining volatility, volume, social activity, and Bitcoin dominance. We treat Extreme Greed (75+) strictly as a supporting sentiment reading, not a top call: sentiment can stay greedy for months in strong trends. It is most useful when the structural signals above are already elevated. The Fear & Greed chart pairs the index with BTC price history.

Why thresholds are stated explicitly

Cycle indicators are easy to bend in hindsight, so every status on this page is computed from a fixed, documented rule - the same rule in every market regime. The thresholds come from how each metric behaved at previous cycle extremes, and they are conservative by design: this scoreboard should stay quiet through ordinary rallies and only light up in conditions that historically preceded major tops.

Two honest caveats. First, each indicator has effectively three or four historical cycle tops behind it, a small sample. Second, Bitcoin's market structure keeps changing (spot ETFs, institutional flows, diminishing returns across cycles), which can mute signals that worked in earlier eras. Use the scoreboard to frame risk, and combine it with the underlying charts in the Data Library.
