Formula
SMA50 and SMA200 = simple averages of the last 50 and 200 daily HYPE/USD closes. Spread = SMA50 / SMA200 − 1. Golden cross: the spread turns from negative to positive; death cross: from positive to negative. Price / 200D SMA = close / SMA200.
How to read it
The 50-day average follows the recent trend of the HYPE price and the 200-day average the long-term one. When the 50-day average drops below the 200-day average the move is called a death cross; when it climbs back above, a golden cross.
The lower panel shows the gap between the two averages: green while the short-term trend runs above the long-term one, red while it runs below. Every change of colour is a cross. The first two came within a year of the 200-day average becoming available: a death cross on 22 November 2025 and a golden cross on 6 April 2026. The table also gives the close as a multiple of its 200-day average, so 1.25 means the price stands 25% above it.
Moving averages trail the price, so a cross confirms a move that has usually been under way for weeks. It describes the trend; it is not a timing signal, and with HYPE trading only since late November 2024 there are still few crosses to learn from.
Limitations
- Daily closes at 00:00 UTC from Coin Metrics Community Data. Another price source or closing time can move a cross by a day or two; recomputed from Hyperliquid's own HYPE/USDC spot closes, both crosses so far land on the same day as ours and the 200-day average differs by about 0.02% on a typical day.
- HYPE's daily history starts on 2024-12-13, so the 50-day average starts on 2025-01-31 and the 200-day average, the spread and the multiple on 2025-06-30.
- In sideways markets the averages can cross back and forth within weeks; a cross does not by itself say how far or how long a trend will run.
- The price / 200-day multiple is our own addition, shown in the table and downloads rather than on the chart.
