Bitcoin October Performance: -4.74% Year-to-Date vs +21.89% Historical Average — Coinglass

Bitcoin is showing a negative mid‑month performance in October: COINOTAG reported on October 17 that, according to Coinglass data, the cryptocurrency’s year-to-date return for October stands at -4.74%. This figure reflects observed price movement through the reporting date and is presented as a contemporaneous performance metric rather than a projection.

The gap between current performance and the historical average is a measurable deviation that investors can factor into seasonal risk assessment and portfolio analysis.
