Analysis: Despite the market recovering, some investors still choose to exit with a stop-loss, indicating that the market may have already undergone a significant "sell-off."

On January 6, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost noted that despite Bitcoin’s recent rebound, realized losses still outweigh realized profits. Looking at weekly realized P&L averages, realized profits total $312 million while realized losses hit $511 million. Even as the market shows signs of warming, some investors are still opting to cut losses and lock in their losses. Historically, this type of “surrender sell-off” phase often signals the end of a correction cycle. That said, attention should still be paid to the intensity of this round of selling—it’s approaching levels seen in the prior bear market, which may indicate the market has completed a more substantial “cleanup,” laying the groundwork for a healthier market restart.
