Multiscale Oscillator: Direction vs. Volatility

Each panel is one timeframe's real BTC history, fit as a damped oscillator — an exponentially-decaying envelope modulating a rotation at that timeframe's own natural frequency, drawn as a spiral moving forward through time (radius shrinks as it damps, exactly like a swinging pendulum losing energy, not a Fourier sinusoid that repeats forever at fixed amplitude). Panels run biggest/slowest (Monthly) to smallest/fastest (1-minute), per the operator's own framing.

Blue = direction (fit to raw signed returns) · Orange = volatility (fit to |returns|). Frequency: FFT power-spectrum peak of the real series. Damping: linear regression on the log-decay of the return series' own autocorrelation function. Drag any panel to rotate all of them.
