BTC Reserve and BLR Chart Explanation
Last updated
This chart visualizes two key indicators:
Exchange Reserves (Blue Area Chart):
Represents the total amount of Bitcoin held in exchanges.
A decreasing reserve may indicate that investors are withdrawing BTC for long-term holding (bullish signal).
An increasing reserve suggests more BTC is available for selling, which could indicate potential selling pressure (bearish signal).
Bitcoin Liquidity Ratio (BLR - Orange Area Chart):
Calculated as Exchange Reserves ÷ Trading Volume.
A higher BLR means there is more BTC on exchanges relative to trading activity, indicating lower liquidity and possible price stagnation.
A lower BLR suggests high trading activity compared to available reserves, meaning higher liquidity and potentially stronger price movements.
Rising BTC reserves + Rising BLR → Possible selling pressure (bearish).
Falling BTC reserves + Falling BLR → Investors may be accumulating BTC (bullish).
Stable BTC reserves but decreasing BLR → Market liquidity is improving, which often supports price stability or upward trends.
📊 Summary:
Monitor reserves for accumulation or sell-off trends.
Track BLR to assess market liquidity and potential volatility.
Combine with other indicators (e.g., Open Interest, Funding Rates) for better analysis.
What Does It Mean?
Exchange Reserves: Total BTC held on exchanges.
Trading Volume: Total BTC traded within a specific period.
BLR shows how much BTC is available relative to trading activity.
How to Interpret BLR?
High BLR: More BTC on exchanges, but low trading activity → Lower liquidity (possible price stagnation).
Low BLR: More BTC is being traded relative to reserves → Higher liquidity (potential price movements).
🔍 Tip: Use BLR alongside exchange inflows/outflows and market trends for better insights! 🚀
