Bitcoin bias flipped 30 times to neutral on October 13, 2026
Bitcoin fell below $82K after being rejected near $84K, with reports pointing to over $400 million in liquidated positions and a broader $774 million leverage unwind across crypto. The decline was also linked to around $150 million in Bitcoin and Ether ETF outflows involving BlackRock, alongside a surging dollar index and broader market weakness that left 'Uptober' expectations disappointed. This matters for Bitcoin because the price move coincided with large-scale liquidations and ETF flows.
