News Event Trading (Strategy/Saylor BTC sale)

trade the predictable reaction to major news events (BTC sales, etc.)

Key metric

N=2 in all history — not systematizable

Why an edge should exist / hypothesis
Large events (Strategy sold 32 BTC, −6% in a week) produce a predictable reaction.
Construction
Short into/after the event is published.
Test data
N=2 comparable events.
Results
The weekend short caught the tail of one (entry $61.8k, but a Sunday reversal → −1.62%). The main move happens within minutes of publication; retail is late.
Validation
N=2 — no statistics.
Root cause
Too rare; latency vs algo funds; OTC volumes are invisible on-chain.
Verdict
Not actionable.
