Net position relative to whale exchanges
Net exchange position
Is the current phase of the market approaching a top?
This is the theme explored in the current week;
In view of this topic, we should look for it from the rigidity of the use of funds itself, which is the most core direction of funds flow.
(The following figure shows the net position relative to the whale exchange)
The data from whales shows that they are still accumulating more funds and crypto assets.
The overall selling pressure has also begun to slowly decrease, and the market has returned to equilibrium. The expectations for the halving in April have been adjusted, and the sell-off has been understood in advance. This month may be an important stage in reaching equilibrium.
(Figure below: Exchange net position)
Every time there is a big sell-off, or when the market is about to peak, there will be a large amount of net position selling.
Fortunately, there is not much inflow into the exchanges at this stage.
On the contrary, more investors or institutions are moving their chips from exchanges to their wallets. This is a huge accumulation, and the market is still in the buying and accumulation stage.
The chips in the exchange are decreasing, which is good news. If this purchasing power can be sustained, the halving may continue to have a driving effect on prices.
Total impact

Accumulation trend points
(Total impact amount in the figure below)
After a period of adjustment and repair, the market has now reached a lower point of temporary selling pressure.
As the total impact continues to converge, the pressure on the market is also easing.
The near term may be a time of lower risk.
Of course, dynamic observation is needed.
(Figure below shows the trend of net positions on exchanges)
The overall net position of the exchange presents a trend structure of outflow accumulation.
At the same time, combined with the total impact volume, if there is no further selling pressure, the market may gradually enter a stage with less pressure.
By then, a better trend may be brewing.
(Figure below: Network sentiment positivity)
Although the overall selling pressure has eased, trading sentiment is still in a state of adjustment and repair, and has not shown any right-side signals or tendencies.
Perhaps the overall network sentiment still needs to be adjusted and repaired, and the market needs to be sorted out for a period of time.
(The following figure shows the accumulation trend)
The accumulation situation at the current stage is relatively weak, and the enthusiasm for participating in the current market may still be relatively cautious.
From the status of each address, it can be seen that currently only addresses > 10k are slowly accumulating chips, but the pace is relatively cautious.
At the same time, this model also reflects that the enthusiasm for participation in the past month has been relatively cautious.
