Q1 2023 Signals Report

A quarterly breakdown of key market metrics that could be impacting price and investor sentiment

by Fidelity Digital Assets

Digital assets are unique in that they not only generate traditional market signals based on price or trading but also an entirely new set of signals based on the on-chain data that can be viewed by anyone given the transparent ledgers they operate on. These signals can be valuable for all types of investors, but the challenge lies in determining what signals to use, how to match the signal to the correct investment time horizon, and then how to correctly interpret the data.

In this report we have collected what we think are the strongest signal indicators, grouped them by time horizon, and provided an overall assessment of the conditions for each time horizon.

We then provide a breakdown of all the signals included in each time horizon, their charts, and a short definition and explanation of each.
