About ByteTrend
ByteTrend is ByteTree's trend-following platform. Every day it asks the same five questions of thousands of assets — stocks, ETFs, digital assets, commodities and currencies — and turns the answers into a simple 0–5 score.
The thinking behind it
Markets trend. Prices that have been rising tend to keep rising for longer than intuition suggests, and prices that have broken down tend to stay weak. ByteTrend doesn't forecast where a price is going — it measures, systematically and without opinion, whether a trend exists right now and how complete it is.
Because every asset is scored by the same fixed rules every day, scores are comparable across markets, sectors and asset classes. A 5 means the same thing for a US mega-cap, a copper future or bitcoin: all five trend conditions are met. That consistency is the point — it lets you scan the whole market for leadership and deterioration without reading a single headline.
Two lenses on every asset
Each asset is scored twice over: once on its own price (Local), and once on its price relative to the MSCI World index (CAPR — Currency-Adjusted Price Relative). Local tells you whether the asset is going up; CAPR tells you whether it's beating the global market. The strongest ideas tend to score well on both. The scoring page explains the mechanics in detail.

Data and timing
Prices are gathered and scores recomputed daily after market close processing. The date stamp in the footer shows when the site was last rebuilt with fresh data. Stocks score on trading days; digital assets trade around the clock, so they score every calendar day.
