<h2 id="reason-behind-bitcoin-s-rally">Reason Behind Bitcoin’s Rally</h2> 
<p>The on-chain data provider assessed the BTC STH supply profit/loss ratio. This measurement, which shows how much profit or loss BTC STHs are making, helps to determine when investors are selling too much or buying excessively. According to historical data, a profit/loss ratio above 20 indicates over-heated market conditions, below 0.05 indicates oversold conditions, and around 1.0 indicates the break-even point. When the market recovery began in October, the STH Supply Profit/Loss Ratio rose above 20. The overheated market conditions drove BTC’s price above $44,000, which, as highlighted, led to a wave of profit-taking activity by investors who had held the cryptocurrency for less than six months. Glassnode stated the following regarding the issue:</p> 
<p>“This week’s rise to $44.2k triggered a high degree of profit-taking activity among STHs, which shows that this group is acting according to their gains by taking advantage of demand liquidity.”</p> 
<h2 id="sths-realized-profits">“STHs Realized Profits”</h2> 
<p>During significant market pullbacks, increased excitement and reactive selling behaviors can be observed among investors. Based on combined insights from the STH Supply Profit/Loss Ratio, NVT-Premium indicators, and Realized Profit/Loss Ratio, Glassnode ultimately stated in the report:</p> 
<p>“As we can see, the recent rally reaching $44.2k was accompanied by statistically significant profit realization by STHs… We might see a combination of factors suggesting potential demand saturation could be at play.”</p> 
<p>On the other hand, the trading activity observed on the 12-hour chart showed that fundamental momentum indicators had slid below the relevant central lines when the article was written. This situation could indicate a decrease in BTC accumulation while crypto sales were gaining momentum.</p> <span style="font-weight:bold;font-size:16px">Continue Reading:</span> <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/analysis-of-bitcoins-recent-price-movement-challenges/" data-wpel-link="internal">https://en.coin-turk.com/analysis-of-bitcoins-recent-price-movement-challenges/</a>
