Bitcoin Regime Score

Bitcoin Regime Score

Over the past week, Bitcoin rose from $76.5K to $84.0K. Bitcoin Regime Score responded with two brief surges: it reached +52 on September 19 and +64 on September 22, briefly entering Strong Bull territory. It then returned close to zero, even though price held on to most of its weekly gains.

The Score does not currently confirm a sustained bullish regime. Another move above +30 would carry more weight if the Score stayed in bullish territory and the model’s signals became more aligned. A drop below -30 would indicate that bearish signals have gained the upper hand.

Bitcoin Regime Confidence

Bitcoin Regime Confidence

Bitcoin Regime Confidence shows how clear the model’s signal is. A low reading means some market data point to gains while other data point to losses. When Confidence rises, the model’s signals become more aligned, though they can align in either a bullish or bearish direction. Over the past 24 hours, the reading fell from 50% to 22%, approaching its monthly low of 19%.

For now, the opposing signals nearly cancel each other out. That is why Bitcoin Regime Score is close to zero despite the rise in price over the past week.

Conclusions

Bitcoin is trading at $84.0K, 3.7% below its monthly high of $87.2K. Price held on to most of its weekly gains, but Bitcoin Regime Score returned to neutral and Confidence fell to 22%.
