A market psychology chart shared by the account @alicharts has drawn attention this week. It follows the Wall Street Cheat Sheet style and maps how investor emotions change through bull and bear markets.
Disbelief: This rally will fail like the others. https://t.co/I01R9xzNdT pic.twitter.com/Elso1woPUa

The chart starts with disbelief, when prices recover but investors stay doubtful. Hope, optimism and belief follow as prices rise. The cycle peaks with thrill and euphoria.
How the Market Cycle Chart Works
After the peak, the cycle turns. Investors first dismiss falling prices as a short pullback. Anxiety grows when repeated recovery attempts fail.
Panic and capitulation come later in the chart. Capitulation is the stage where many investors sell to escape further losses. It is often tied to major market bottoms.
Early stages of the cycle have often come with heavy leverage and strong retail excitement. The chart ties those conditions to the market’s later reversal.
Current conditions match the anxiety and denial stages, with some early signs of panic. The exact stage cannot be known for sure.
Fund Outflows and Sentiment Data
Data reported by crypto.news shows US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds had net outflows of about $398.6 million on November 2. That followed withdrawals of $643.3 million on October 30.
The selling came as Bitcoin fell toward $76,000. Ethereum traded around $2,250 at the same time.
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index stood at 34 on November 4. About one month earlier, it was near 70.
That is a sharp drop in investor confidence. Still, the market has not shown the broad selling usually seen at major cycle bottoms.
CoinGecko data puts the total crypto market value at about $2.66 trillion. Bitcoin makes up nearly 59% of that total.
A high Bitcoin share means investors are leaning toward the largest coin. They are not moving heavily into smaller, riskier tokens.
Analysts say a lasting recovery would need steadier ETF flows and better liquidity. Stronger demand across major coins would also help.
Federal Reserve interest rate policy, inflation and stock market performance remain factors to watch. These conditions affect how investors view risk assets.
Bearish sentiment alone does not show that a bottom is near. A further drop could move the market toward panic and capitulation, while steady buying could mean this was another correction.
Bitcoin was last seen near $77,000, with the Fear & Greed Index at 34 on November 4.
