Description

The AHR999 Index measures how overheated or undervalued Bitcoin is relative to its long-term fair value models. It blends historical price behavior with logarithmic regression to pinpoint when BTC trades in accumulation, expansion, or overextension zones — effectively a "thermometer" for Bitcoin's cycle temperature.

What this endpoint provides

A clean and interpretable version of the classic AHR999 model, frequently used to identify deep-value accumulation zones and overheated market tops. It helps automations and investors determine when Bitcoin's price sits in undervalued, fair-value, or speculative ranges.

Response fields

value

The current AHR999 value — ratio of BTC's market price to its long-term regression-based fair value.

zone

Simplified categorical label (bottom, neutral, overheated, etc.) derived from the AHR999 value.

scale

Legend explaining the value thresholds that define each zone.

phase

Interpreted market phase based on AHR999 (e.g., Bottom, Mid Bull (Expansion), Overheat, Top).

price_usd

Latest Bitcoin price (USD).

summary

Concise text summary combining the key information into one readable line.

Output example

[
  {
    "indicator": "ahr999_index",
    "value": 1.88,
    "zone": "neutral",
    "scale": "Bottom <1.2 | Mid Bull 1.2–2.5 | Overheat 2.5–3.5 | Top >3.5",
    "phase": "Mid Bull (Expansion)",

    "summary": "AHR999 = 1.88 → Mid Bull (Expansion). (Price $103425)"
  }
]

Interpretation & Use

The AHR999 Index provides a simple but powerful cyclical guide: • **< 1.2 (Deep Value / Bottom Zone)** → Historically optimal accumulation phase. • **1.2 – 2.5 (Mid Bull / Expansion)** → Sustainable growth phase; strong but not overheated. • **2.5 – 3.5 (Overheat)** → Increasing risk of local or macro tops. • **> 3.5 (Top Zone)** → Extreme euphoria; high probability of major correction. Use the value, zone, and phase fields to describe long-term valuation context in dashboards, or as triggers for automation rules (e.g., tighten exposure once zone ≥ Overheat).
