Wall Street is fleeing crypto — short Bitcoin as the biggest whale starts sellin
Created
Thesis
Bitcoin is decoupling from the broader stock market recovery, sliding even as traditional equities bounce. With $4 billion already pulled from Bitcoin ETFs this month, the institutional demand has completely dried up. The announcement that Strategy is preparing to sell up to $1.25 billion of its Bitcoin reserves acts as a massive overhang on the market, signaling to retail traders that even the biggest bulls are looking for the exit.
Strategy approach
Build a breakout strategy that enters short MSTR on D1 if Bitcoin (BTCUSD) closes below $59,500. Use a 10% trailing stop to capture downside momentum and exit if BTCUSD closes back above the $62,000 resistance level.
