$BTC Retail long positions have now dropped to their lowest level since May, while institutional longs are sitting at their highest level over the same period.
At first glance, this looks like a major positioning shift. But when the market becomes too one-sided, it often creates the conditions for a shakeout.
With retail losing confidence and larger players building exposure, $BTC could be setting up for a move that traps late longs before any real recovery.
Positioning is important, but price action will decide. For now, the risk of a downside sweep remains on the table.
