Bitcoin Price Experiences Volatility While Macro Trend Oscillator Signals Future Tops
Bitcoin experienced significant volatility in the past 24 hours, briefly surpassing $106,000 before consolidating around $103,000. This fluctuation indicates that Bitcoin's price may continue to rise before reaching its peak.
The Decode Macro Trend Oscillator (MTO), a new macroeconomic tool, suggests potential timing for Bitcoin’s price peak. Key features of the MTO include:
- Aggregation of 40 macroeconomic indicators into 17 leading metrics
- Historical alignment with Bitcoin's major peaks in 2013, 2017, and 2021
- Visualization as a histogram that signals transitions between bullish and bearish phases
As of May 2025, the histogram is still in a negative zone but shows signs of upward movement, indicating potential macroeconomic conditions favorable for Bitcoin.
Decode’s analysis compares current economic conditions with those of the late 1980s and early 1990s, noting similar patterns of downturns and expansions. Although Bitcoin remains in the negative histogram zone, the oscillator suggests more room for growth, implying that a price top is unlikely before 2025.
Current Bitcoin trading price: $103,300.
