Market Indices RSI Heatmap
RSI across the macro crypto indices — Total, Total2, Total3, BTC.D, ETH.D, USDT.D, USDC.D, plus alt-segment indices. Reads the broader market regime that drives every individual pair.
The Market Indices RSI Heatmap shows RSI across the macro crypto indices — Total (total crypto market cap), Total2 (ex-BTC), Total3 (ex-BTC and ETH), BTC.D (BTC dominance), ETH.D (ETH dominance), USDT.D / USDC.D (stablecoin dominance), plus alt-segment indices (DeFi, Gaming, Layer-1, Meme, ...). Individual pairs trade inside the macro tide; reading the indices first tells you which way the tide is flowing.
Indices covered
| Index | What it represents |
|---|---|
| Total | Total crypto market cap (BTC + everything). |
| Total2 | Market cap excluding BTC. |
| Total3 | Market cap excluding BTC and ETH (the alt market). |
| BTC.D | BTC dominance % of total market cap. |
| ETH.D | ETH dominance %. |
| USDT.D / USDC.D | Stablecoin dominance % — a risk-off gauge. |
| DEFI | DeFi sector cap. |
| GAMES | Gaming sector. |
| L1 | Layer-1 sector. |
| MEME | Meme-coin sector. |
(Available indices depend on data feed; not all may be present at all times.)
Reading the matrix
- BTC.D rising + Total falling — money flowing out of alts into BTC = alt-bear regime.
- BTC.D falling + Total rising — alt-season starting; rotate to alts.
- USDT.D rising — money flowing into stables = risk-off; expect alt sell-off.
- Total3 RSI > 70 with Total RSI < 50 — alts overheated relative to BTC; expect mean reversion (alt flush, BTC strength).
- Sector indices diverging — leadership rotation (e.g. DeFi RSI 80, MEME RSI 30 → DeFi season).
Filters
- TF — 1H / 4H / 1D / 1W. Higher TFs give macro reads; 1H is intra-day.
- Sector — toggle index groups.
How to use it in a workflow
- Open this heatmap first thing every morning before any single-pair analysis.
- Read the BTC.D / Total relationship — pick alt vs. BTC bias for the session.
- Read sector heatmap — pick which sector to hunt setups in.
- Open Futures RSI Heatmap filtered to that sector for the actual pair candidates.
- Drill into the pairs in the Chart Terminal.
Common pitfalls
- Trading against the macro regime — countertrend alt long when BTC.D is exploding usually fails. Trade with the macro tide.
- Reading 1m / 5m index RSI — too noisy; indices are macro by definition. Use 1H minimum.
