200-Week MA Heatmap
Bitcoin price colored by its ratio to the 1400-day moving average of closing prices, approximating 200 weeks. A reading of 1x means price at the average; 6x means six times that average. Colors describe this multiple without establishing a top, low or accumulation.
What is it?
The heatmap compares Bitcoin price with its simple moving average over 1400 daily closes, approximating 200 weeks. The result is a multiple: price divided by average. Color coding locates this multiple without measuring changes in the average itself.
How to read
At 1x, price equals its average; above, it exceeds it; below, it is lower. Warm colors describe high multiples and cool colors low multiples. The multiple can change because of price, the average or both.
Key zones
The 1x reference separates prices above and below the average. Other gradient levels distinguish relative magnitudes. They are neither reversal probabilities nor buying or selling thresholds.
What to observe
Observe persistence of multiples and crossings around 1x. Compare color changes with price and moving-average trajectories. A color alone cannot establish trend acceleration or a future return.
Historical context
The 200-week average is a public long-term reference. This chart uses a daily approximation. Periods above or below the reference can be read in the available history, with no guarantee that the average will provide future support.
Expert notes
The calculation divides price by the moving average and excludes a zero denominator. The chart measures neither purchases, sales nor the rate of change of the average. A multiple scale is not a percentage deviation: 2x means price is twice the average.
Common mistakes to avoid
A cool color does not demonstrate accumulation and a warm color does not date a top. Price can remain below or above the average for a long time. The chart describes a relative position without transaction instructions or return promises.
