Big speculators are not buying the dip!
Updated
While there is not much to talk about the price action due to Bitcoin trending mainly sideways since our last article, one notable thing is catching our attention. Despite a pullback in the price of Bitcoin, there is no increase in the number of Bitcoin addresses with balances exceeding 100 BTC and 1,000 BTC, suggesting that big players are not buying the dip (unlike on previous occasions when Bitcoin gave up a significant portion of its gains). That is, indeed, a very worrisome development as it comes at a time when bullish momentum is disappearing in the broader cryptocurrency market as well as in the stock market. As a result, we continue to monitor the same things we outlined in the previous article and remain on high alert.

Note
Bitcoin is testing the upper bound of the channel shown in Illustration 1.01. In addition to that, so far, there has not been any significant change (to the upside) in the number of mentioned Bitcoin addresses.
