How It Works — The Details

How BitcoinIQ distills 20 cycle indicators into your monthly signal.

Macro Cycle Index

The long-term forces that drive Bitcoin's major cycles. Global liquidity, Fed policy, and economic conditions create the tide that lifts or sinks all boats.

Global LiquidityFed PolicyISM Business Cycle

Understanding the Tidal Zones

The Flood
> +60·Liquidity surging — maximum macro support
Rising Tide
+20 to +60·Easing conditions building — momentum growing
Slack Water
-20 to +20·Tide turning — inflection point, mixed signals
Ebbing Tide
-60 to -20·Tightening conditions building — caution
The Ebb
< -60·Liquidity draining — maximum macro headwind

Market Pulse Index

The short-term heartbeat of market behavior. Where Macro Cycle sets the tide, Market Pulse reads the waves — revealing whether the market is overheated or undervalued.

Fear & GreedMVRV Z-ScoreSOPRRSIBitcoin Dominance

Understanding the Pulse Index Zones

Deeply Extended
> +60·Extreme greed — market at historically extended levels
Above Neutral
+20 to +60·Positive momentum — sentiment and on-chain positive
Neutral
-20 to +20·Balanced — no strong signal either way
Below Neutral
-60 to -20·Negative pressure — fear and on-chain stress
Deeply Depressed
< -60·Extreme fear — historically depressed conditions

These are complementary tools — one reads the macro environment, the other reads market temperature. A savvy investor looks at both:
“Are conditions favorable?” and “Is the market pricing it in yet?”

itcoinIQ

The complete picture. BitcoinIQ runs all 20 macro, on-chain, and sentiment indicators through the Distillery into a single model-generated accumulation multiplier — and flags conditions historically associated with profit-taking. Daily AI-generated analysis powered by Claude Opus turns it all into plain-English context.

Two Schools of Thought

There are two popular schools of thought among Bitcoiners: never sell your Bitcoin, and cycle trading — accumulate heavily near the bottom, sell near the top.

Our backtesting showed that the best time to sell Bitcoin is: never. But our Cycle Position does support optional, occasional profit-taking at optimal moments — based on where the current cycle sits across all 20 indicators.

Never stop stacking — just stack smarter.

Your Custom Strategy, Powered by Data

Cycle Position distills all 20 indicators into one composite score that provides a data-driven sizing framework. Set your base DCA amount in Account Settings — BitcoinIQ generates a multiplier based on model output: higher near historical cycle lows, lower near historical highs.

Considering profit-taking? The same score flags historical conditions where scaling out has been observed, based on current market conditions.

“You don't need to time the market. You need to size your positions.”
