Explanation
The Pi Cycle Top Indicator chart uses two key moving averages to identify potential Bitcoin market cycle tops: the 111-Day Moving Average (111DMA) and the 350-Day Moving Average multiplied by 2 (350DMA x2). The 111DMA reflects short-term price trends, while the 350DMA x2 provides a longer-term perspective, adjusted by a factor of two to capture more gradual market behavior. A key signal occurs when the 111DMA crosses above the 350DMA x2, historically indicating points where Bitcoin's price may have risen too quickly, potentially marking the peak of a market cycle. This crossing serves as a warning that Bitcoin may be overextended. This chart was created by Philip Swift
