Chart of The Day – Bitcoin

Bitcoin is retreating back above $95,000 and data from Bloomberg, this week, suggests a significant slowdown in buying activity in ETFs. Yesterday, they accumulated BTC worth ‘only’ $91 million, and this entire week saw a net outflow of about $300 million, while long-term investors are making steady distributions and selling off BTC reserves at a rate of as much as $2 billion per day, according to on-chain data from Glassnode. Such an environment suggests for potentially more selling pressure, with insufficient demand, and could signal a potential correction in BTC prices.

  • On the other hand, however, a potential defense of the area around $91,000 could indicate another upward impulse above the $100,000 level. The financial media was circulated yesterday with the news that Scott Atkins, former SEC member is likely to become chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Atkins himself has long been and is associated with the blockchain industry, but the market ‘didn’t celebrate’ these reports for too long, and Bitcoin price is gradually cooling down now, after yesterday’s rebound.
  • This, too, could indicate more selling activity and a prevailing belief in profit-taking, after record highs this year. However, looking at the scale of BTC sales by long-term addresses, they have currently sold off about 550,000 BTC which is a much smaller number than the about 930,000 sold this spring; which may suggest that there is still room for growth, and that so-called ‘HODLers’ addresses are less likely to part with Bitcoin before Donald Trump’s presidency, in January.

Bitcoin chart (D1, H1)


Looking at the cryptocurrency’s chart on both the daily and hourly intervals, we see that the $80k level could prove crucial, looking at the 23.6 Fibo retracement of the entire 2022 upward wave and the 61.8 Fibo retracement of the surge after Trump’s victory. A pullback from $99.5k to $80k would also be consistent with similar corrections in previous Bitcoin cycles.
