Holiday season tends to trigger some predictable market moves. After a few days of festive indulgence, traders often get itchy fingers on the sell button. It's a pattern we see play out year after year—the post-holiday period brings a wave of profit-taking as investors look to lock in gains before year-end. Whether it's Bitcoin, altcoins, or the broader crypto market, history suggests we should keep an eye on sell pressure during this window. The psychology is simple: people return from their break, check their portfolios, and decide it's time to take chips off the table.

According to research, this post-holiday sell-off phenomenon is clearly explained in Kahneman's behavioral finance theory — essentially an overlay of the mental accounting effect and the disposition effect. It is worth noting that from a technical perspective, historical data shows that the trading volume during this window period is not linear, and detailed on-chain indicator verification is needed to confirm the true level of selling pressure.

Here we go again with the same routine? It's the same script every year. I just want to see if this year they'll really follow the usual pattern.

It's the same routine every year. As soon as the holiday is over, the selling starts... But can I hold on this time?

It's the same old routine every year, the post-holiday money-grabbing scheme, it's boring.

As soon as the holiday is over, they start dumping the market. This trick is played every year.

Coming back with the same routine? Every year it's the same talk about selling pressure, but I still haven't fully bought in.
