BTC has fallen below a line it had never truly broken below in 2026.

Not $70,000 or the 200-day moving average, but the 200-week moving average—$69,555.

Every major drop this year, $BTC found support around this line. This time, it went straight below it.

What happened today (as of this morning, according to CoinGecko / CoinGlass):
• BTC around $68,700, down 6.2% in 24 hours, with an intraday low of $67,568—the lowest since August 19
• $ETH fell below $2,000, also for the first time since August
• $1.41 billion in liquidations over 24 hours; 89% were long positions, and 173,000 traders were liquidated
• The Fear & Greed Index fell to 20, its first “Extreme Fear” reading since July
• U.S. spot BTC ETFs saw net outflows for 5 straight days, totaling about $1.44 billion; BlackRock’s IBIT saw over $2 billion in outflows across 9 trading days

Why watch the 200-week moving average?
It’s the long-term moving average most often viewed as the “last line of defense” in a bull market. If it holds, the decline is still just a pullback; if the weekly candle closes without reclaiming it, the market will have to reassess whether the bear market is already here.

Key levels / signals to watch next:
• First resistance above: $69,555 (200-week moving average) + the $70,000 psychological level. Whether BTC can close Sunday back above them is this week’s most important signal
• Support below: $67,568 (today’s low); if it breaks, watch for lower levels
• What would invalidate the breakdown: If the weekly close gets back above $69,555 and ETF outflows slow, this was a false breakdown; otherwise, bears remain in control
• U.S. PPI is released tonight at 21:30; inflation data could once again sway expectations for Fed rate hikes

Analysis only, no position. When fear is extreme, are you greedy or fearful?
