We asked Claude AI:

"When is the best time to sell Bitcoin?"

After backtesting, the answer was never.

Then we asked:

"Can we improve on a fixed Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy?"

The answer was yes.

The Framework

The Bitcoin Strategy: How it works

Timing Bitcoin's tops and bottoms is virtually impossible. Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) — investing a fixed amount on a regular schedule — removes emotion and works. But we can do better: by scaling the amount via a cycle-aware multiplier.

The Tide (Macro Cycle) and the Wave (Pulse Index) combine to calculate your Cycle Position — which produces a DCA Factor: a multiplier on your fixed amount. If you've enabled the Consider Profits option in Account settings, the Cycle Position will generate a scale-out factor at high-stress zones historically associated with cycle highs. This level of macro analysis is usually reserved for institutional platforms — BitcoinIQ makes it accessible.
