Analysis

Bitcoin is the canary in the coal mine for credit markets, André Dragosch posted on 1 November 2026, quoting Matt Crosby’s observation that BTC cycles have repeatedly turned before downturns and recoveries in junk-bond appetite.

Price at $77839.92 sits below the EMA50 at $79543 and the EMA200 at $81264.44, confirming the bearish structure, yet the MACD golden cross at -771.42 hints at building momentum; with RSI at 41.89 still neutral and price inside the Bollinger band, a push toward upper resistance at $81555.91 remains possible before any deeper test of the lower band at $75486.04.
