Investors pull $1.7 billion from Bitcoin funds — short the crypto weakness
Created
Thesis
Big money is fleeing Bitcoin at a record pace. When institutional investors pull billions out of Bitcoin funds, it usually means they expect the price to keep falling. Add in the global panic from the Iran-Israel missile strikes, and people are selling risky assets like crypto. Betting against Bitcoin right now aligns you with the massive wave of selling pressure.
Strategy approach
Build a trend-following strategy to short BTCUSDT on the 4-hour (H4) timeframe. Enter short when the RSI(14) crosses below 40 and the price is trading below the 50-period moving average. Set a stop loss 2% above the entry price.
