Wall Street is buying Bitcoin again while MSTR reshuffles its crypto stack — mom

Created

Thesis

Bitcoin ETFs just saw a massive $222 million inflow, ending a 10-day streak of outflows, while Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) announced a major shift in its Bitcoin accumulation plan. These two signals together — institutional buying returning and a leveraged Bitcoin proxy committing further — suggest growing conviction beneath the surface. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price action shows a short squeeze pushing prices higher as bears are forced to buy back in. A leveraged Bitcoin holder like MSTR amplifies the upside when underlying sentiment flips from fear to greed.

Strategy approach

Build a rule-based strategy that enters long MSTR on D1 when BTCUSD makes a new 10-day high and the 14-day ATR of MSTR is declining (showing decreasing volatility). Exit when BTCUSD closes below its 20-day low, or after a 30-day hold.
