Crypto trader Jelle argued Bitcoin appears to be in the late stages of its bear market, with spot exchange volume at its lowest since 2019, more than half of supply underwater and exchange inflows slowing.

Seller Exhaustion and MVRV-Z metrics are also approaching historical bottom levels, suggesting a potential accumulation opportunity.

CryptosBatman explained Bitcoin has historically seen major trend shifts around U.S. midterm election years, making the 2026 vote a key window to watch.

With November approaching, the trader expects BTC’s price action to become particularly significant. The previous cycles have produced major repricing.

Why this matters

The return of net inflows to spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs signals renewed institutional demand during a subdued trading period. At the same time, $242.91 million in liquidations shows that leveraged positioning can still amplify moves even when headline volatility appears low.

Trader KillaXBT noted Bitcoin has consolidated above $61,000 for nearly two months, yet traders remain heavily focused on a potential drop toward $50,000.

The trader cautions against repeatedly lowering downside targets simply to fit a bearish bias, arguing that price action, not expectations, should dictate positioning.
