Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed a Bitcoin (BTC) price rebound following initial sell-side pressure.


This was in the form of trading algorithms, popular trader Skew said on the day while highlighting one entity in particular whom he dubbed an “aggro seller.”Source: Skew


“This morning is a great example of liquidity games,” he explained in his latest X update.“Aggro sellers slammed prices lower before large passive buyers came in. Price momentum is basically just positions covering over and over till closed and then market is net long. So probably another reversion trade later on.”


Skew and others tracked a modest ongoing comeback for US stock markets, which had previously seen major losses. The Nasdaq 100 fell 3.6% on July 24, marking its worst day since November 2022, while the S&P 500 slid 2%.

“Did the bubble just pop?” trading resource The Kobeissi Letter queried in part of the day’s X commentary.


US macroeconomic data releases added to the state of market flux.


The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Index came in lower than expected — a potential relief for risk assets with reduced spending bolstering the odds of interest rate cuts.


However, both initial and ongoing jobless claims were also below expectations, pointing to a resilient labor market and reducing market observers’ bets on cuts at the Federal Reserve’s next meeting on July 31.
