Bitcoin Everything Indicator is designed to provide a comprehensive view of all key forces that impact BTC price action, on-chain, macros, technology, and fundamentals. Since its creation, it has proven to be extremely accurate to mark both the top and bottom of the cycle. But today we take that one step further.
In this article, we explore how to upgrade this already powerful tool with simple changes to provide more frequent and practical insights without compromising core integrity. If you’re looking for a high-signal way to approach the Bitcoin market more aggressively, this might be the metric you’ve been waiting for.
What are all the indicators of Bitcoin?
Originally built as a compound tool, the Bitcoin Everything indicator is constructed from several uncorrelated signals.
- On-chain metrics such as MVRV Z-score and used output profit margin (SOPR).
- macroeconomic inputs, particularly the growth of M2 money supply and liquidity around the world.
- Network data containing active address sentiment.
- Technical overlays like Crosby ratio.
- Mining Health Metric incorporates multiple profitability ratios for Puer.

Together, these data points are of equal weights and not overly equipped, creating an aggregate score that tracks the dynamics of the wider BTC market. Importantly, it does not rely on a single model or indicator. Instead, it captures the confluence of multiple domains that collectively form the Bitcoin price movement. The backtest shows that the indicators consistently highlight macro-turning points, including cycle tops and bottoms of surrender, across all major Bitcoin cycles.
Rare but strong signal
Although accurate, all the original indicators were inherently long-term. The signal is displayed only every few years, marking the major inflection points for each bull and bear market. It was invaluable for investors looking to buy generational lowest or scale with macro tops.

However, for those seeking to more aggressively and strategically manage risk at DCA-ing, revolving capital or cycle exits, little day-to-day guidance was provided. Solution? Increases signal resolution without sacrificing the integrity of the model’s macros.
Add moving average
The improvements are elegantly simple. Apply moving averages to all indicator scores and look for crossovers. Just like price-based strategies, you can treat indicators like signal lines and look for changes in direction.
By default, a simple moving average for the 200th period was applied. When all indicators cross over this MA, it suggests that most components, fluidity, network health, emotions, and technology are rising together. These crossovers show the onset of bullish trends and provide early entries rather than waiting for a cycle low. Conversely, crosses below the moving average act as risk removal or distribution signals, especially when occurring in previously identified overheating zones.

Despite conservative trading assumptions (increasing fees and slippage), the performance of this strategy was impressive. Early backtests of Bitcoin, where BTC traded for under $4, showed that this crossover strategy had returned at over 3.1 million percent, dramatically outpacing simple shopping and retention.
Increased signal frequency
To accommodate more active investors, for example, we could further reduce the moving average to 20th term. This provides hundreds of entries and x-signals per cycle, while retaining the original logic of the indicator.
Even when using short-term signals, the returns remained strong, and outperformance remained intact compared to BTC retention. This shows the flexibility of the tool. We can now serve both long-term investors seeking macro confirmations and active traders who want to respond dynamically to market changes.

Reducing the moving average period has important benefits, such as early signal generation at market lows, more frequent accumulation guidance, regular exit prompts during overheating conditions, and increased opportunities to avoid long-term drawdowns.
Conclusion
Bitcoin Everything Indicator is now able to offer the best worlds of both. It is the flexibility to provide high integration of market health, a comprehensive view, and frequently viable signals through simple moving average overlays. Even with real-world trading friction and fees and slippage, this strategy outweighs holding BTC across multiple time frames, including going back to 2011.
So, if you’re already using the Bitcoin Magazine Pro indicator suite, this may be the time to take it a step further. Add an overlay. Adjusts the moving average. Layers of bands and filters. The more you adapt these tools to your own strategies, the more powerful and intuitive it becomes!
