A METRIC THAT MOST TRADERS OVERLOOK—AND WHY IT MATTERS
Relative Unrealised Loss is tracking one thing and one thing only: what percentage of Bitcoin is currently being held underwater. No speculation, no guesses—just actual positions in the red.
Here's the kicker. Throughout previous market cycles, genuine capitulation bottoms only showed up when this specific metric hit certain levels. It's not a prediction tool. It's a historical pattern.
When you strip away the noise and sentiment, when you ignore all the hot takes on social media, this data tells you something concrete about market psychology. Real capitulation doesn't announce itself with fanfare. It whispers through the numbers—through the share of holders sitting on losses, waiting for relief.

It's the same old story... history will repeat itself but never exactly the same.

NGL, I've looked at this indicator a long time ago, but most people simply can't understand what's behind the data... The true bottom is when those who are trapped give up.

Damn, the proportion of loss-making positions is really seriously underestimated. At critical moments, this thing is what helps us see the bottom.

Wow, this data is really amazing. It all depends on how many people are lying in losses.

To be honest, this indicator has been used by some for a long time, but most retail investors simply can't understand it. Truly bottom-fishing opportunities are always silent.
