- Major technical indicators, including the 50- and 100-day moving averages, have stopped rising and are signaling caution.
- Social media posts calling to “buy the dip” have spiked, reaching a monthly high.

Bitcoin (BTC) saw its value fall by more than 3% this week, dropping below key technical support levels as of Thursday. The rapid decline led to a surge in calls to “buy the dip” across social media platforms.
Price action in BTC pierced both the widely-followed 50- and 100-day simple moving averages (SMA), which are now flatlining. These technical indicators, often used to measure the trend direction, signal caution for bullish investors for the first time since April.
Mentions of “buy the dip” among retail traders on platforms like Reddit, Telegram, and X have reached a monthly high, according to the data tracking site Santiment. Santiment interprets this spike as a contrarian indicator that could mean a deeper drop is likely. “Prices typically move [in] the opposite direction of the crowd’s expectations. So if retail traders believe that $112,200 is finally the time to buy, then a little more pain needs to be felt. Once the crowd stops feeling optimistic, and they begin to sell their bags at a loss, this is typically the time to strike with your dip buys,” the platform said in its market analysis note.
Order book analysis from Hyblock Capital points to the largest cluster of liquidity at the $107,000 price level. In trading, order book liquidity refers to the concentration of buy and sell orders available at certain prices. High liquidity often allows the price to stabilize or bounce, but can also act as a magnet, drawing the price toward it. Hyblock noted smaller but growing liquidity pools are forming at $109,000 and $111,000 as well.
Large liquidity levels typically absorb buying or selling pressure, helping stabilize short-term price swings. Traders often look to these areas for potential rebounds, but current market signals suggest the path to $107,000 is open before significant support can take hold.
