The notorious Bitcoin Rainbow Chart has been up to date to incorporate a brand new decrease band referred to as “1BTC = 1BTC.” The chart echoes PlanB’s stock-to-flow mannequin when it comes to sentiment, with bands indicating when to purchase and promote Bitcoin.
“The unique Rainbow Chart is lifeless. Lengthy stay the Rainbow Chart with the brand new indigo coloration band!”
Twitter account @rohmeo_de commented that the brand new indigo band “was at all times lacking.” Its inclusion now accounts for the 2020 dip, which noticed the Bitcoin value breach the earlier lowest band.
In November 2013, BTC breached the higher band earlier than returning throughout the parameters, just for one other higher breach to happen in January 2014.
Nevertheless, referencing the bearish macro backdrop and invalidation of the Inventory-to-Movement predictive value mannequin, @omgbruce mocked the replace, implying it was a determined try to remain legitimate.

The Bitcoin Rainbow Chart
The Bitcoin Rainbow Chart paperwork the BTC value logarithmically throughout ten bands, denoting completely different phases of sentiment. The final thought is that value would transfer between bands and point out potential calls to motion, similar to promote throughout a red-hot market.
As with all predictive value fashions, the value shouldn’t breach the higher or decrease bands. In any other case, the calculations that derive the bands’ positions should be invalid or, at least, incomplete.
Its creators warn that the chart shouldn’t be funding recommendation, previous efficiency doesn’t point out future outcomes, and the chart is a enjoyable method of long-term value actions.
Earlier than the addition of the brand new lowest, “1BTC = 1BTC” band, “Mainly a Fireplace Sale” was the earlier lowest band.
September 19 sees Bitcoin dip into the brand new “1BTC = 1BTC” band amid a weekend sell-off that has continued into Monday. At 08:00 UTC, bulls stepped in at $18,200 to cease the slide, sending BTC to $18,800.
Since then, there have been two additional retests of $18,800 resistance, with bulls thus far unable to interrupt by means of.
With macro elements weighing closely on crypto markets, the chance of a return again above $20,000 within the close to time period is low.
The revised Rainbow Chart has a backside value of round $16,900.
Inventory-to-Movement (S2F) will get invalidated
Plan B’s S2F mannequin predicts the value of Bitcoin based mostly on the present manufacturing price. It assumes a $100,000 BTC value between now and Could 2024.
Regardless of deviations previously, the mannequin noticed a big divergence round June, resulting in some calling the mannequin invalid, even dangerous, because of the false sense of hope value predictive fashions can provide.
In response, Plan B lately took to Twitter, saying he believes S2F remains to be legitimate and expects it to snap again in line earlier than the subsequent halving.
Folks ask if S2F mannequin remains to be legitimate. I believe it’s. We will go technical on autocorrelation & cointegration, however secret is IMO that BTC value shouldn’t be extra/much less off than in 2011, 2013, 2017. IMO S2F mannequin is legitimate and I anticipate a bounce again above S2F mannequin worth earlier than 2024 halving. pic.twitter.com/fbjskn5LFH
