BITCOIN & ALTCOIN 200 WEEK MOVING AVERAGE HEATMAP

The 200 Weighted Moving Average (WMA) is a long-term trend indicator that assigns progressively higher weight to more recent price data within its 200-period calculation window, making it more responsive than a simple moving average of the same length. When assets trade above their 200 WMA, the long-term trend is considered bullish; when below, bearish.

The 200 WMA Heatmap shows each tracked asset's position relative to its 200 WMA as a percentage deviation. An asset trading 20% above is in an extended bullish state — potentially ripe for pullback but also a confirmation of underlying trend strength. An asset trading 30% below is in deep bear market territory. Color coding communicates these relationships across 50+ assets simultaneously.

This heatmap is particularly useful for identifying when the broader market is transitioning from oversold extremes back toward its moving average — a transition that historically coincides with the early phases of a new bull market. When the majority of the heatmap flips from red to neutral or green, it signals a broad-based trend recovery rather than isolated strength in a handful of assets.

The 200 WMA is frequently used as a support and resistance zone. Assets in a downtrend often show a significant rally attempt when they first re-touch the 200 WMA from below, and uptrending assets often find support at the 200 WMA during corrections. Tracking where multiple assets sit relative to this level simultaneously provides macro context for understanding overall market structure.
