Weekend selling has hit altcoins hard.

As fear from equities spills into crypto, the typical altcoin is down over 5%. If the weekend closes like this it would be the largest weekend drop since April.

Since the $BTC low in June, buying Friday and selling Sunday was profitable.

Altcoin leverage is still running hot.

Prices have pulled back since leverage peaked earlier this month, yet over 40% of large caps still sit near their highest leverage of the year. In mid caps, that share is at a yearly high.

A deeper drop would put many longs at risk.

Short-term profit-taking has weighed on $BTC.

Two weeks ago we flagged short-term holders in profit sending the largest share of exchange inflows in a year. This selling has weighed on price since.

The flow has now eased back to its average yearly level.

ETF buyers came back in size yesterday.

US spot $BTC ETFs took in $663M, the most in a day since September, and all of it went into BlackRock's IBIT.

That single day erased the funds' net outflows for October. Follow-through would confirm the demand is back.

The Q4 levels for $BTC have held so far.

Last month, together with @colin_basco and the @CoinbaseInsto team we put resistance at $87K to $87.8K in our Charting Crypto report. We read the data as near-term consolidation.

Price stalled there and ranged below it ever since.

A break out of the range is likely to spark significant volatility, although another overhead supply cluster sits around $90k.

Binance asks and the biggest liquidation clusters sit around $87K.

The top buyers still cap $BTC price near the same levels.

A daily close above that level with ETF inflows would show buyers absorbing the supply.
