Bitcoin2026-10-02 08:04:30Bitcoin futures buy pressure climbs to highest level since Aug. 19 as bulls rebuild positionsBitcoin futures market buy pressure has climbed to 4.9, its highest reading since Aug. 19, according to crypto analyst @AxelAdlerJr. He said open interest rose by nearly 9,000 BTC over the past 24 hours, a sign that traders are building positions again. The indicator measures the balance between buying and selling pressure, weighted by changes in open interest. A 4.9 reading means the pressure accumulated over the past 12 hours stands nearly five standard deviations above the average level seen over the past week. Adler said the spike may reflect a mix of new long positioning and short covering. He added that if Bitcoin can stay above $85,000 even as upside momentum slows, the current rally may continue. The main risk for fresh long positions, he said, would be a drop below $83,000, where liquidations could speed up the decline.20

Bitcoin2026-10-01 10:30:18Bitcoin gives back post-PCE gains as methodology changes muddy inflation signalBitcoin stayed above $83,000 on Thursday after surrendering gains that followed a softer-than-expected US inflation print, with traders still unable to push the asset through resistance below $86,000. The August Personal Consumption Expenditures price index, the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge, rose 3.4% year over year, below the 3.7% consensus estimate, while core PCE increased 3.0%. But the release also included methodology changes tied to portfolio management and investment advice, computer software and accessories, and legal services, prompting The Kobeissi Letter to argue that the adjustment alone may have lowered core PCE by as much as 20 basis points. The publication also noted that July headline and core PCE were both revised down by 30 basis points. Market positioning remained mixed. CoinGlass data showed Bitcoin opened the fourth quarter near $83,550 after gaining 42.7% in Q3, its best third-quarter performance since 2017. Liquidation heatmaps showed exposure clusters on both sides of spot, including a fresh $60 million pocket near $83,000 and support around $82,500. At the same time, Glassnode said BTC-denominated futures open interest has dropped nearly 20% even as price climbed 35% from its August low, leaving open interest at its lowest level since March and potentially reducing the rally’s sensitivity to leverage-driven liquidations.20
