Bitcoin finished October 6 at $83,791.40 on OKX’s daily table. The session opened at $85,722.80, never traded above $85,857.40, and printed a low of $83,577.10. That close is $1,931.40 under the prior finish, a 2.25 percent drop, on $363.94 million of volume.
The fund file did not match the candle. Satsintel’s Farside scrape, updated October 7 at 02:00 UTC, put the October 6 U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF net flow at +$7.8 million. The entire print was Morgan Stanley’s MSBT. IBIT, FBTC, and ARKB showed zero that day. Month-to-date intake on the same table was $196.0 million. A small creation day and a $1,931 cash-market decline can sit on the same calendar date.
The Crypto Times reported $546.89 million in crypto liquidations over 24 hours, with long positions at $479.73 million, about 88 percent of the total, across 101,772 traders. Its cited low was $83,647.88, close to the OKX daily low but not the same print. Open interest in Bitcoin perpetual futures was put at $69.29 billion.

How far did Bitcoin fall on the October 6 OKX candle?
From the October 5 close of $85,722.80 to the October 6 close of $83,791.40 is $1,931.40. The intraday range was narrower than that sounds: $2,280.30 from high to low, and the high never reclaimed Monday’s $86,693.70 peak on the same exchange. October 4 still holds the week’s OKX high at $86,994.30.
The ETF contrast is with October 5, not with a blank page. That session was a $89.8 million net outflow on the Satsintel table, led by ARKB at −$85.2 million, with IBIT the only large buyer at +$69.9 million. October 6 flipped the sign and shrank the number. MSBT’s $7.8 million did not replace the size that left ARKB the day before.
What to watch next
Whether Wednesday’s OKX low holds above $83,577.10. A finish under that figure would be the first daily close below the October 6 low and the weakest OKX close since September 28, when the table shows $83,079.00. The other file is the October 7 ETF print, which will show whether MSBT’s one-fund intake was a stub or the start of a broader creation day.
