Bitcoin bias flipped 30 times to neutral on October 9, 2026
Bitcoin dropped about $7K in three days, cutting September gains in half amid $1.1B in liquidations and about 55K BTC moved to exchanges by short-term speculators. The selloff turned an expected "Uptober" start sour for crypto majors, while Bitcoin dominance rose to a one-month high as altcoins remained under pressure. Bitcoin has since rebounded after the rough week, with coverage noting traders are still pricing in more downside.
