A reading between 7 and 8.5 has historically marked stretched conditions — valuation and on-chain signals were, in aggregate, closer to the historically-dangerous end of their trailing 4-year range. BTC price moved up 11.3% from the prior week's $896.
This reading predates the July 9, 2026weight freeze and reflects an in-sample backtest — read it as illustrative of the model's logic, not a validated track record. See the methodology limitations.
