Each Sunday we publish how we view the market, how we are positioned, and what we expect.
Reading this for the first time?
Our system reads markets from three layers:
- Macro — higher time frame analysis (Interest rates, DXY, money flow, volatility): should we take risk?
- Bitcoin Specific — perpetual futures positioning: what is the day-to-day market backdrop saying?
- Execution — lower timeframe signals and the live book state: did the live layers agree on a trade?

Facts
- 30 months since the halving
- 31.9% below the cycle high
No buy window — cycle discount not deep enough yet (31.9% below cycle high; holding).

Deeper Macro Analysis
Our composite macro read is +0.17.
This score is derived from analysis of rates, dollar, ETF flows, exchange supply, volatility, skew, credit, equity correlation, stablecoins, miner pressure, and halving-cycle age. Positive leans constructive; negative leans soft.
Current read: mildly constructive. Long and short entries allowed (constructive risk-on, calm vol).
Cycle timing
30 months past the halving · -31.9% below the cycle high. We treat this as drawdown-awareness, not a timing call.
Rates and financial conditions
10-year real yield 2.88% · 10Y minus 2Y Treasury spread 0.46% (inverted when negative — tighter financial conditions). Higher real yields and a flat/inverted curve typically press duration assets like $BTC even when spot looks calm.
Dollar and liquidity
US Dollar Index 120.3 · M2 money supply +0.99% over 28 days. A firm dollar and slowing M2 growth are headwinds for broad risk appetite.
Spot ETF flows
Last five sessions: positive $186 million · Prior five: positive $2.7 billion. This is our cleanest read on incremental institutional bid — flows do not predict every candle, but they tell us whether the marginal buyer is showing up.
Volatility, cross-asset link, sentiment
Realised vol (36.7%) vs implied vol (35.5%) shows whether options are pricing more or less fear than realised movement. BTC–Nasdaq correlation (0.65) near 1 means $BTC is trading like a tech beta; near 0 means idiosyncratic drivers dominate. Fear & Greed at 65 adds a behavioural check — extreme greed often coincides with fragile leverage. Together: calm vol inside a constructive risk-on macro label.
