This chart is a financial technical analysis chart for Bitcoin against the US Dollar (BTC/USD), with several indicators plotted on it. At a glance, here’s what the chart shows:
Cauchy Bands Indicator: The blue shaded area and the blue lines represent the Cauchy Bands, which are based on the Cauchy distribution of Bitcoin’s daily returns. These bands attempt to model the likely ranges of Bitcoin’s price movements. The area within the bands indicates the zones where the price is statistically expected to lie with varying degrees of confidence. The bands get wider as the confidence level decreases (more extreme but less likely events).
BAERM (Bitcoin Autocorrelation Exchange Rate Model): This model is indicated by the red curve line. It is a predictive model that has been trained on historical Bitcoin data and includes factors such as autocorrelation of Bitcoin’s price. According to the text, it has a high coefficient of determination (R² of 0.83), suggesting it fits the historical data well.
Price Movement and Confidence Levels: The chart includes annotations that describe the likelihood of the price reaching certain levels. The annotations "unlikely," "more likely," and "most likely" are aligned with the bands indicating the confidence intervals for price movements:
“Most likely” is the closest band to the current price and represents a high confidence area where the price is statistically more expected to remain.
“More likely” is further away and represents a less confident prediction, but still within a probable range.
“Unlikely” is far from the current price, indicating a low probability range according to the Cauchy distribution, though still possible.
Directional Arrows: There are arrows pointing downwards along with the annotations, which suggest that the model or analysis predicts a downward movement to be more probable than an upward one within the given confidence intervals.
Given this information and the indicators used, the chart suggests that, at the time of this analysis, it is considered "most likely" for Bitcoin’s price to decrease to the lower confidence interval near the “most likely” label, However, financial markets are unpredictable, and these models provide statistical probabilities, not certainties. The annotations on the chart emphasize that extreme price movements are possible, even if they are statistically less likely. -... But honestly ..- models like this (in fact, all "quantitative" models) are stupid and don't mean anything-.-- when all of the market participants are different. The halving is coming.
