[BTC Return Review] Monthly return at -0.76%… Significantly below the historical November average, down 12.4% year-to-date

Bitcoin's monthly return stands at -0.76%, sharply underperforming the historical November average and leaving the asset down 12.4% year-to-date, according to CoinGlass data as of 4:45 p.m. on the 3rd. Entering week 44 of 2026, Bitcoin is posting a weekly return of -1.8%, extending a five-week losing streak that began with -3.2% in week 40, followed by -2% in week 41, -2.4% in week 42, and -2.2% in week 43, with losses narrowing but not reversing. Daily performance has been choppy, with a +1.1% gain on the 1st, a -2% drop on the 2nd, and a modest +0.2% rebound so far on the 3rd, suggesting a pattern of rallies being sold into. The persistent weakness across weekly, monthly, and quarterly timeframes underscores fading momentum despite shrinking weekly declines. Traders will be watching whether the narrowing weekly losses signal a bottom or if Bitcoin breaks its five-week downtrend heading into the final weeks of the year.
