Indicator Overview

The indicator tracks the percentage change in the Bitcoin (BTC) price compared to its price exactly 365 days prior. This highly effective momentum oscillator is used to analyse the cyclical nature of Bitcoin. It displays positive values (price is higher than a year ago) in shades of green/yellow and negative values (price is lower than a year ago) in shades of red. The unique insight is the visual representation of market cycle phases through the gradient colour intensity.

How To Use

The Year-over-Year Delta acts as a primary tool for identifying macro market tops and bottoms. Extreme negative readings (deep red) signify deep bear market capitulation, marking major accumulation zones and cycle bottoms. Conversely, peaks in the positive readings (bright yellow/green) signal periods of excessive euphoria and parabolic growth, reliably preceding cycle tops. This oscillator cuts through short-term noise, providing a clear visual of investor sentiment momentum across major market cycles.
