- Binance BTC/USDT spot volume over 24 hours was 15,087 BTC ($1.25 billion) versus 8,219 BTC a day earlier: turnover rose 84%, so both the drop and the rebound came on noticeably higher activity.Binance

2Technical analysis
- Daily RSI(14) is 53.8: the indicator sits mid-scale — no momentum either way, far from overbought 70 and oversold 30.Binance
- MACD at 686 is below its signal line at 1,170, histogram −483: daily momentum keeps fading after the early-October peak, although both values are still above zero.Binance
- Price is above all key averages: EMA20 $83,213, EMA50 $80,265, EMA200 $75,739. The overnight drop to $81,034 did not reach the EMA50, and the reclaim of the EMA20 by morning keeps the short-term structure intact.Binance

- The 50-week MA is $76,617; the golden cross (EMA50 above EMA200) printed on Sep 13, 2026 and still holds: the medium-term trend remains up.Binance

- Fractals: of 6 similar two-week stretches in history, 3 were followed by gains (median −1.2%), while on the 50-day window 5 of 6 rose (median +2.9%): the short horizon is neutral, the medium one leans bullish.CoinLab
