Bitcoin bias flipped 23 times to neutral on October 12, 2026
Bitcoin was turned back near $84K again while facing pressure connected to a surging Dollar Index. US spot Bitcoin ETFs have posted heavy weekly outflows, including a $679 million weekly reversal that contributed to $1.2 billion in combined Bitcoin and Ether ETF losses, with funds in the red for October at a three-month high for outflows. The moves come as geopolitical uncertainty weighs and the Crypto Fear and Greed Index has dropped back to August lows.
