#cripto2025 When the cryptocurrency market (specifically Bitcoin and memecoins like PEPE) is **"bearish" on Wednesdays**, it may be due to various cyclical and technical factors. Here I explain the possible causes and strategies to take advantage of these drops:
---
### **📉 Why do Wednesdays tend to be bearish?**
1. **Futures Expiry**
- Many BTC and ETH futures contracts on exchanges like Binance, Bybit, and Deribit **expire on Fridays**, but traders begin to adjust positions starting Wednesday.
- This creates volatility and potential cascading liquidations.
2. **Institutional Flow Patterns**
- Funds and ETFs (like the Bitcoin Spot ETF in the U.S.) often rebalance portfolios mid-week.
- Sellers take the opportunity to lock in profits before the weekend.
3. **Psychological Effect**
- Retail traders tend to be more active on Mondays/Tuesdays. By Wednesday, the momentum wanes.
4. **Macroeconomic News**
- Data such as the **U.S. CPI** or FED decisions are often released on Wednesdays/Thursdays, causing temporary panic.

### **🎯 Strategies to take advantage of "bearish Wednesdays"**
#### 🔵 **If you are a HODLER (long-term investor):**
- **Accumulate at key support zones** (e.g., if PEPE falls near its 200-day moving average).
- Use **limit orders** to buy on dips (e.g., "If PEPE reaches $0.000005, I will buy X amount").
