Bitcoin has begun to show signs of stabilization after a sharp drop that left the market oversold. on-chain, spot, and derivatives data suggest that selling pressure is easing, while ETF outflows have returned after a chain of consecutive days of Capital . However, overall market liquidation remains low, sentiment has not fully recovered, and sustainable demand is still lacking.

Below is a detailed analysis of each important index group.

Spot Price and Market: Early Recovery but Liquidation

RSI recovers strongly from oversold zone

  • RSI rose from 18.6 to 39.6 , breaking out of the lows and showing selling pressure is exhausted.

  • However, the indicator is still below neutral, meaning the recovery is only in the "breathing" stage and not yet a clear reversal.

Spot CVD turned positive

  • Spot CVD from -106.6M to +29.9M , showing that buyers are starting to take the initiative again.

  • This reflects a more positive market sentiment in the short term.

Spot Volume weakens

Bitcoin enters a delicate equilibrium phase

Weekly data shows Bitcoin is moving from deleveraging to equilibrium :

Positive points:

  • Selling pressure decreased sharply

  • ETFs return to net buying

  • Futures reduce risk

  • RSI recovers from oversold zone

Negative points:

  • Low liquidation

  • Weak on-chain activity

  • New Capital is very thin

  • The supply structure is heavily speculative.

Conditions for BTC to truly recover:

  1. Increase strong cash flow into spot

  2. ETF maintains cash flow

  3. Volume increases again

  4. on-chain operations are more active

Until then, the market is still in a state of “fragile equilibrium” — balanced but fragile .
