Cycle Top Indicator [CTI] | Deep Dive AnalysisIn this post we will look at some of the long-term trends identified with the tracking of the CTI indicator (Red and Green Moving averages in the price chart), and what we can learn from the observed behaviors over Cycle 1 / 2 / 3 and possible implications for Cycle 4.
INDICATOR RECAP
The CTI indicator attempts to model the cycle top based on observed historic price over extension from Cycle 1 / 2. Indicator marks a cycle top when the 'Fast MA' (Red Line) crosses above the 'Slow MA' (Green Line). I.e. the condition where both MAs price value is equal. I should be noted that this condition was achieve for every cycle to date so far, and that the condition was met twice for the experienced 'double peak top' in Cycle 1 but was only met for the first of the two peak tops during Cycle 3.
OSCILLATOR: % DISTANCE MODELLED BETWEEN SLOW (GREEN MA) & FAST (RED MA) – NORMALISED TO PRICE
The below oscillator models the %Distance away from each other the Green Line and the Red line gets over BTC's cycles (Normalised to Price).
* RED HORIZONTAL LINE: When the oscillator is equal to 1, this models the price value of the Green and Red moving averages as equal (or the CTI cycle top condition)
* ORANGE HORIZONTAL LINE(s): These mark the maximum over extension the Red MA exceeded the Green MA during a cycle top condition.
* GREEN HORIZONTAL LINE(s): These mark low levels of the oscillator, indicator maximum distance of the Red MA below the Green MA during each cycle.
BLACK SLOPING TREND LINE(s): Represent the diminishing trend of overlap between the Green and Red Mas each cycle.
* VERTICAL RED AND GREEN LINES: Show cycle tops and bottoms as triggered by the CTI and CBI (Cycle Bottom Indicators) – NOTE: CBI moving averages not shown.
SIGNIFICANCE OF ORANGE HORIZONTAL & BLACK TREND LINES
It is observable that each peak of the Oscillator is lower than the previous cycle peak (each peak is marked with an Orange horizontal line). This diminishing trend is shown with each orange line marked lower than the line before, and modeled with the Black downward sloping trend line(s) connecting the peaks.
A reminder that the Red Horizontal line shows the condition with the CTI models the cycle top and conditions above the Red Horizontal line show the % distance the Red MA reaches above the Green MA each cycle. For example:
* Cycle 1 Peak = 1.58
* Cycle 2 First peak = 1.25
* Cycle 2 Second peak = 1.20
* Cycle 3 First peak = 1.07
The diminishing trend of this relationship over each cycle (if historic behavior continues) suggest that the CTI overlap condition for cycle 4 my not eventuate. This would be modeled by our oscillator not exceeding the red line in Cycle 4.
The learnings for this analysis could suggest that waiting for the CTI indicator to Fire may result in a non-event for Cycle 4.
SIGNIFICANCE OF GREEN HORIZONTAL LINES
A surprising finding from this analysis show for all cycles to date that when the modeled oscillator reaches levels between -1.11 and -1.82 and particularly for Cycles 2 / 3 & 4 between -1.50 & -1.82 (Red MA % distance below the Grean MA), Historically BTC has found its cycle bottom. These findings are summarized below for quick reference.
* CYCLE 1-4 Bottom Oscillator Condition: -1.11 <> -1.82
* CYCLE 2-4 Bottom Oscillator Condition: -1.50 <> -1.82
Feel free to include any other observations I may have missed in the comments below. i intend to do a similar analysis for the CBI indicator when I find the time.
Bitcoin through next halving - on the cusp of a new cycleIf BTC makes a corrective move up and re-tests this region as support - this is what we think could happen. The tops/bottoms are never 100% accurate and change as market dynamics change - but this should give us a rough idea.

The orange line, as in the previous cycle, offers strong resistance.
💡I think CRYPTOCAP:BTC will stay at the current mark for another month. After that, we go to the correction, most likely it will not be a deep correction, but rather a consolidation.
This is indicated by overbought and seasonality.
⛏️ And also the capitulation of miners after the halving is possible, this will lead to a decrease in the hashrate, which will slow down the growth for some time. But do not be sad, the bull market will continue closer to autumn↗️

BTC/USD Halving 518 When will be the cycle price low and high.Main trend. Time frame 1 month.
This idea is almost a clone (in meaning, not visualization) of my previous idea published 1.3 years ago:
BTC/USD Secondary trend cycles and halvings.
For great visualization and clarity I added leap years (pre-pump, pre-distribution), this applies to all markets, not just the “young” cryptocurrency market... That is, after it, just the price is in the zone of distribution (sales), which is identical with the price highs of the secondary trend.
Bitcoin cycle 4 years:
Year 1 - birth of a new bullish trend (leap year).
By the way the next year 2024 is exactly like that. But, read carefully to understand the point.
For some time the price moves sideways or with a small rise.
Positive/negative alternates. Negative dominates.
There is no interest in the crypto market. The traffic of stupid money is minimal.
The volatility of the price of instruments is usually minimal.
This phase of the market is also called "participation" (more relevant to the second part).
In the final phase—active movement to the distribution zone (the zone of sales by large market participants—small).
In a given year (or near this time zone in the previous year), there is typically a second dump (second price low) with more aggressive dynamics by a large %.
Dump -60.66% 03 2020.
On the chart as an example of past dump at -60.66% (magnet) at the start of Corona 03 2020 (taking advantage of the world situation) before pumping the market in the future. Always keep this kind of thing in mind and be prepared for it, even if you are sure it is unlikely. Observe mani management.

Trading by trends and important areas using the example of BTC
Something like a big triangle like 2020 is forming now.

Altcoins in this time zone cycle .
Altcoins tend to be in their accumulation channels. Alternately, from time to time, some are “firing” (usually of lower liquidity). Some produce “takeouts” under the dial zones.
The essence of this time zone for alts is to gain as much as possible % of positions from the market. The price is not important (the average price of a set is taken into account), alts typically follow the general market trend, which is logical and tactful from the position of long-term prospects of earning in cycles.
Year 2 - Bull Market. Trend price maximum and distribution zone .
Resetting positions by large market participants. That is, the smart money sells to the dumb at the market high.
The 17 weeks post-halving ( 518 days, gematria ) zone of perfect selling in crypto asset allocation. Roughly speaking it's a zone near price highs, at least that's always been the case in past cycles of bitcoin and the crypto market as a projection of it.
Altcoins in this time zone of the cycle.
Inadequate altcoin pumping. Typically, "old" cryptocurrencies are showing 5-10x (+500-1000%) of previous dialing zones. The average profit accumulation/distribution of almost any cryptocurrency is 5-8X, with the range of lows and highs (for hamsters) usually twice as large.
A huge amount of all sorts of crypto speculative garbage "promising cryptocurrencies" and "bitcoin killers" is created ... Pumped at the most inadequate interest with holding the reset zone for a long period of time due to the huge traffic of "stupid money".
It should be separately emphasized that in this time zone of the cycle huge traffic of “stupid money”, who want to get rich without understanding anything about it.
The crowd is not afraid to buy. This is key. The media is all about the positive.
A huge number of newly-formed crypto experts are young kids, whose expertise will disappear when the market turns around in the next sub-cycle....
Anyone can make money ("sitting on the trend"), even buying and holding anything for a while, of course, except for "promising high-tech crypto garbage" on inadequate pumps and with the same news positive accompaniment.
Absolutely all alts including high capitalization never repeat their price highs to bitcoin.
Year 3 Bear Market. Market dumps from area of distribution (selling) price highs to area of set (buying).
Price typically drops about -70%-80% on bitcoin
Typically, when a distribution support zone is broken, many scare tales or real negative news stories are created to scare and trigger a “crypto depression”. Subsequently, a mostly negative news backdrop dominates, usually of a made up fairy tale nature in “three lines” for the true fools.
Holders of “promising crypto” are bleeding, hope for the price to return to the previous value and "faith in projects" are gradually fading away. The final phase is dominated by the view that it's all a “crypto scam”. Bitcoin will "die." Toward the end of the phase, there is always a “bloody month” (price minimum)—before the formation of the dialing zone.
Altcoins in this time zone of the cycle.
Altcoins are declining from pumping highs before stopping the decline and moving sideways (set zones):
Highly liquid 80-90%
Medium liquid 90-96%
Low liquid (extinction candidates) from -95% and below % conditional on such "crypto trash on the verge of life and death".
Year 4 is the sideways zone, i.e. the accumulation zone. .
In this time zone after a significant dump (more than a year) there is a corrective price recovery movement. This is the so-called "intermediate bitcoin pumping cycle". We are just in it at the moment.
Altcoins in this time zone of the cycle.
Altcoins of high and medium liquidity depreciate, as a rule, by -90-93%. Once this % depreciation is reached, horizontal accumulation channels (1 major zone) of position set for the next cycle are usually formed.
"Cryptocurrency holders" who bought at or near price highs in the last cycle tend to all sell at a large loss in "tired of waiting" accumulation zones for their "promised bags of money".
Low-liquid altcoins depreciate in price by -95% or lower.
It is worth recalling that -95% from the previous -90% is -50%. That is another reduction of the deposit of the “grief trader” in two times.
A part of altcoins, which with a small "community of believers in the wrapper" - “dies”.
Often, the creators crypto run out of money for all sorts of marketing tricks. Then they pour the rest of their crypto phantom on the market, inventing some tale of hacking or something similar.... After that - "to the islands", until the next bull cycle. The sect of "deceived MMM depositors" scatters. The wrapper dies definitively....
Altcoins, including HYIP ones, which were created in the last cycle, are all depreciating. Out of the top 100 of the previous capitalization ranking, they depreciate beyond the top 1000. Never recover in capitalization and price not only to bitcoin, but also to the dollar in the future in the next cycle.
This is what bitcoin trend cyclicality looks like on a linear price chart

Are we waiting for #FOMO in #SPX to spark Fomo in #BITCOINSeems, clear to me the obvious answer is YES!
So let's cheer on #STONKS cracking 5,000 on the #S&P
As we would likely see risk be fully turned on, and cash to flow into the #Crypto space.
FWIW
I think the #Economy stinks
but that doesn't necessarily mean assets can't go up in number.
There are plenty of examples where this is the case.

BTC's Rhythm, it likes 3...3 is a powerful concept in our existence. Body/Mind/Spirit. Positive/Negative/Neutral. Father/Son/Holy Ghost. You get the idea. BTC is no different.
In this chart, 0 (at the bottom, fib time) is anchored to Halvings. The period between Halvings gives us 0.33 and 0.66; one third and two thirds of the cycle respectively. In splitting the chart time up this way, a clear pattern emerges (for the past Decade or so).
From Halving to 0.33, BTC tends to Rally hard (Parabola Phase).
From 0.33 to 0.66, BTC tends to Correct.
From 0.66 to 0 (next Halving), BTC Tends to put in a Bottom/Base.
While past performance does NOT indicate future results, history does tend to rhyme. Will this time be different? Will institutional adoption alter this cycle? Will the maturing of BTC as a Global Asset change the cadence of its growth? Only time will tell.
So far this Halving is holding true to past rhymes. If, and that's a BIG IF, it continues to follow this chart... our current Parabola should endure thru ~~ Aug '25; At which point a heavy correction is quite likely.
If we see structure breaking to the downside (on the weekly timeframe), then perhaps this time IS different; as that has not occurred in previous "Parabola" Phases. This gives us a clear invalidation of this theory.
As always, good luck, have fun, and practice solid risk management.
When will BTC top? - Four-year cycle theory predictionIn January of 2022, I predicted that Bitcoin would bottom in November of that year. I made that prediction on the basis of similarities across two prior 4-year cycles, and my call turned out exactly right.
Early this year (2024), I came to the conclusion that the 4-year cycle theory was invalidated when Bitcoin reached ATHs (above 69k) much earlier than in previous cycles. In fact, it made new highs even before the halving, which has never happened before. However, a few weeks ago I decided to revisit the 4-year cycle theory and see whether it might somehow still be salvageable. I argue that it can be salvaged, but only if we overlook the price action from Q1 of this year. If we treat the price action from Q1 of 2024 as an aberration - perhaps because ETF inflows were hotter than anyone expected - then the four year cycle can still be considered valid, and put to work to make some predictions.
With that caveat, in other words, if we overlook evidence that invalidates the hypothesis (stupid, I know) then I can say that Bitcoin should top sometime between Sept 20 and Oct 20 of 2025 ...that is, if this cycle matches older cycles.
I make my prediction on the basis of the following four criteria across three prior cycles.
1. It has taken Bitcoin between 364 - 415 days to reach the bottom from ATHs. In other words, it takes Bitcoin around a year to reach bottom.
2. It has taken Bitcoin between 1070 - 1135 days to make new highs after a previous cycle's ATHs. If you bought the absolute top of a cycle, you've had to wait around 1100 days before you saw new highs.
3. After Bitcoin makes new highs, it tends to run for between 329 - 343 days before reaching that cycle's top. In other words, after making new highs, Bitcoin stays in a bull market for close to a year.
4. Finally, and most interesting, it has taken Bitcoin EXACTLY 1064 days to reach ATHs from a previous cycle's all-time-lows on two separate cycles . That is a remarkable coincidence.
So, if we overlook the price action of Q1 2024 and decide that Bitcoin made new cycle highs (above 69k) for the first time in October of 2024, then we can drink from the hopium cup which says Bitcoin should keep running for around a year until Sept-Oct of 2025. If, by some strange coincidence Bitcoin tops out exactly 1064 days from last cycle's lows (criteria 4 above), the top should come in on October 20th, 2025.
So, once again:
Sept 20 - Oct 20
This is obviously not scientific, and even more obviously NOT financial advice.
Here's the link to my 2022 bottom prediction:

It is historically a good time to Sell Bitcoin at the Top of the Channel and Buy Bitcoin at the Bottom of the Channel.

Will Bitcoin Hit ATH Before Halving?I posted a Log Regression when #Bitcoin was 15k.
I publish now when it is 62k. So CRYPTOCAP:BTC has already done x4.
What now? Shall we break the ATH? Let's consider the pros and cons.
This is why yes:
➕Increasing global liquidity.
➕So far, positive flow from ETFs.
Here's why not:
➖Strong overbought
➖Previously, there was no ATH breakout before the halving. And immediately after, the "sell in May" season.
➖Strong sales began (in medium wallets), because many people consider ATH a good zone to sell the part.
💡Conclusion. If we do not break the ATH in the next 2 months, it will likely happen in the autumn. In the base case scenario, I only expect a test ATH unless ETF flows and liquidity increase significantly.
BLX curves worth more than long speechesHistorically this indicator provided a good overview of the range of BTC price since its early days. Obviously, in the long term it will become depreciated. However, so far, it seems to be pretty accurate. This is the result of 2 curve lines on both ends.
Noting that tops are difficult to draw accurately and predict since we are on a logarithmic scale and fewer tops are touched (a small change puts the price to 195k$).
Yet, it provides a pretty accurate insight of what the bottom price could be.
For people who don't own BTC, a good strategy would be to be patient and start an aggressive DCA strategy close to the bottom curve.

Facts about $BTC in coming months V.03here is just another perspective from a repeating cycle on Bitcoin chart. I've shared younger chart earlier but it worth sharing it again here.
BTC Long Term OutlookLooks pretty straight forward for me. Another bull run in horizon.
Below are my reasons for this belief:
Fundamentals
- Next halving is coming in just over a year - May 2, 2024
- There were a few black swan events in the past year and price of btc managed to keep very strong still.
- The black swan events occurred due to human fault, and the trust in the traditional systems are broken. People are realizing slowly that crypto is actually much more secure and people friendly compared to the centralised traditional systems.
- Price of everything has risen in the past year to all time highs; houses, cars, lands, even groceries. Inflation is real. And to be able to hedge against inflation you need to but assets which are scarce by design - Bitcoin and Ethereum. (I expect Ethereum to be better in terms of hedge against inflation in the long term tbh - due to the new token economics after the merge)
On-Chain Data
- On-chain data shows the wallet addresses with equal or more than 0.1 btc balance and 1 btc balance are at an all time high.
- Address with equal or more than 1000 btc are at Sep 2019 levels, I take this positively as there are 440 less whales to dump their btc - all time high on this data was on Feb-March 2021 which is the first top of the 2021 run.
We can easily see that a lot of whales decided to sell out and probably triggered the bear run down. People have been accumulating and it shows by the amount of smaller addresses (retail) popping up and hitting all time high.
Indicators
ACMF (money flow) - still under 0, which is ok considering we are in a bear market. On the weekly chart it shows the only times we have had this low was close to the bottom of the cycles.
TLL RSI - One of the longest oversold stays on this indicator. I expect this indicator to make a move up soon and that will be one of our serious que in the short-medium term to validate this idea.
Hope you enjoyed it, if you did, please boost and comment what you think about it.
Thanks
