Three ugly plots that demonstrate why you should stop treating power curve forecasts as "probabilities."
This is the BTC/GOLD 0.01 quantile power curve fit calculated on 1 July 2022. A common extension of this analysis is to claim, "there's a 99% probability that BTC/GOLD will be above this trendline in the future."
However, BTC/GOLD was only above that trendline for 16% of the next 1306 days. Not 99%.
So, what do people do? They compute a new trendline and repeat the claim. "Actually, there's a 99% probability that BTC/GOLD will be above THIS trendline."
