【The Most Common Mistake Retail Investors Make: Assuming a Big Drop Means a Quick Rebound】

Down 0.1% over 24 hours and 1.7% over 7 days, with the price at $76,007; the Fear & Greed Index is at 25, with a weekly average of 33, and the trend is still pointing down. My signal is clear: stay on the sidelines, with a bearish bias—not bullish, and not chasing the drop.

Looking at the price structure, $73,422.58 is support and $77,791.32 is resistance. Trading volume is low, indicating a strong wait-and-see mood. Sentiment is also weighing on the market: ETFs saw $430 million in outflows in a single day, led by Fidelity and BlackRock. Strive bought 15,124 BTC in October and now holds 43,124, showing that long-term buying is still there. But short-term capital is still pulling out. These are two separate things and shouldn't be conflated.

On the ground, Russia has allowed retail investors to trade BTC, ETH, and USDT through regulated intermediaries, and plans to launch trading on the Moscow Exchange in December. The areas affected are trading channels, liquidity, and compliance service providers. The business logic also makes sense: trading is moving out of the gray market and into a regulatory framework. But this addresses access, not short-term buying; rules taking effect doesn't mean the price will immediately take off.

So, if the price breaks below $73,422.58, the bias remains bearish. A move back above $77,791.32 accompanied by rising volume would be the signal to turn bullish. Until then, I'd rather wait. Which way is your signal pointing?
