According to the analytics firm, the metrics that predicted the Bitcoin price drop were:

  • 2Y SMA Multiplier – Based on Bitcoin’s two-year moving average, this metric has historically tracked price cycles. According to Alphractal, Bitcoin has been showing weaker growth over time, and a trendline resistance emerged in mid-December that signaled a local top.
  • MVRV Z-Score – A measure of realized value relative to market cap, this indicator helps identify overbought and oversold conditions. Alphractal noted that Bitcoin is encountering resistance at a key trend line that lines up with past local highs.
  • Reserve Risk Indicators – Metrics such as VOCDD, MVOCDD, and Reserve Risk evaluate long-term holder behavior. The MVOCDD Signal in particular acted as a classic local top warning, indicating that seasoned investors were beginning to reduce exposure.
  • On-Chain CapFlow Sentiment Index – This metric combines realized capitalization and momentum indicators to track the strength of coin flows. A weakening trend has been detected, suggesting that experienced holders are offloading coins.
