Bitcoin steadied near $76,900 on Tuesday 3 November 2026 after dipping to $76,300, CoinDesk reported, pressured by ETF outflows and midterm-election nerves. For anyone holding BTC alongside stocks, the move tightened the link between crypto headlines and the rest of a portfolio, making a single combined view more useful than two apps.
What happened to bitcoin on 3 November 2026?
Bitcoin held around $76,900 on Tuesday 3 November 2026 after falling to $76,300 earlier in the session, according to CoinDesk, which pointed to spot-ETF outflows and midterm-election uncertainty as the pressure on crypto. The dip was shallow relative to the headlines driving it.
On the same day, Cointelegraph reported that Binance net inflows turned positive at $2.3 billion even as withdrawals kept expanding, a shift from the earlier wave of exits that followed the exchange's $6.3 billion hack. Two facts matter for a holder:
- $399 million in back-to-back spot bitcoin ETF outflows removed demand from the regulated side of the market.
- Binance customers had pulled a net $4.72 billion in the wake of the hack before inflows turned positive again.
We covered the earlier stage in depth in our breakdown of bitcoin ETFs bleeding $643M after the Binance hack, and the custody question in Binance reopening withdrawals after the $6.3B hack.
Why does a bitcoin dip matter to your stock portfolio too?
A bitcoin move matters to a mixed portfolio because crypto and equities increasingly react to the same macro triggers, so a volatile BTC session rarely stays contained to one line of your holdings. The 3 November drop sat alongside midterm-election nerves that touch stocks as well.
If you hold BTC-USD, an S&P 500 ETF, and a few individual names, the questions during a wobble are the same across all of them:
- What is my total exposure to the asset making headlines right now?
- How does today's move change my overall profit and loss, not just the one position?
- Have I set the price levels I actually care about, before I get distracted?
Answering those in two or three separate apps is slow. A combined view answers them at a glance, which is the whole case for tracking stocks and crypto together in one app.
How do you track crypto and stocks together in one view?
You track crypto and stocks together by holding both asset classes in the same tracker and using a combined view that totals them in one currency. PortfolioTrackr runs across 100 stock exchanges and converts into 100 currencies, so BTC-USD and a Tokyo-listed stock sit on the same summary card.
The ALL PORTFOLIOS combined view
The ALL PORTFOLIOS view combines every portfolio you keep into a single total, and it is on every plan for anyone with more than one portfolio. That is where you see crypto and equities add up together.
- Keep crypto in one portfolio and stocks in another, or mix them, your choice.
- Each connected broker gets its own read-only portfolio, and it does not count toward your portfolio limit.
- The combined total shows your real net exposure when a headline hits one asset class.
Getting your holdings in
Connecting a broker is optional. Several ways to add holdings work on every plan, including the free trial:
- Smart & Easy Import by voice, text or screenshot.
- Bulk CSV import for a full history at once.
- Manual entry for anything, including self-custody coins.
Because PortfolioTrackr does not connect to crypto wallets or read a wallet address, self-custody BTC is added by hand, by CSV or from a screenshot. Exchange-held coins can also come in through a broker connection where supported.
Which brokers and exchanges connect to PortfolioTrackr?
Direct broker sync works with Alpaca, Bybit and Interactive Brokers on every plan, including the free trial. Separately, 42 brokers connect through the SnapTrade bridge, which needs a paid Pro or Lifetime plan.
Here is how the import and connection options line up by plan:
| Feature | Free trial / Starter | Pro / Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| Direct sync (Alpaca, Bybit, IBKR) | Yes | Yes |
| SnapTrade bridge (42 brokers) | No | Yes |
| Smart Import, CSV, Smart Sell | Yes | Yes |
| ALL PORTFOLIOS combined view | Yes | Yes |
If you are deciding between connecting an account and importing by hand, our guide to connecting a brokerage account to a portfolio tracker walks through both paths.
How do you set alerts on bitcoin price levels during volatility?
You set alerts on bitcoin price levels by putting a Target 1, Target 2 or a stop-loss on your BTC position, or a price above or below on a watchlist entry. PortfolioTrackr checks crypto around the clock, once a minute, and you hear within a minute of your level being hit.
What the alerts actually watch
Alerts are price levels only. On a stretch like 3 November, that keeps you focused on the numbers you chose rather than every headline:
- Set a level near $76,300, the session low, to know if it is retested.
- Set a level above your entry price so a recovery pings you.
- Add up to 10 watchlist tickers on the free trial and Starter, 50 on Pro and Lifetime.
There are no news, earnings, percentage-move or liquidation alerts, and PortfolioTrackr reports status against your own levels, for example still below target or stop-loss level reached. It does not tell you what to do.
Where alerts reach you
Delivery runs on every plan, with one exception:
- Email, WhatsApp, Telegram and push alerts are on every plan, including the free trial.
- SMS is Pro and Lifetime only.
- A recurring alert repeats for the same target at most once every 5 minutes.
Stocks, ETFs and futures are checked once a minute while the market is open, and a closed market is skipped at night, at weekends and on exchange holidays. Only crypto is checked around the clock, which fits a BTC level that can move at 3am. You can review all of this on the price alerts page.
How does PortfolioTrackr handle a foreign-currency crypto position?
PortfolioTrackr converts the cost of a holding at the exchange rate of the day you bought it, and its value at today's rate, so a currency gain or loss shows as its own line on the summary card and the P&L chart. This matters if you bought BTC while your home currency was stronger.
- Cost uses the purchase-day rate, not today's rate.
- Sold holdings use the sale-day rate; dividends use the pay-date rate.
- The tax report converts each trade at the rate of its own date and prints that rate on every row.
There are 10 years of daily exchange rates behind this for all 100 currencies, so a long-held foreign-currency position reports a true split between the asset move and the currency move.
What is still unknown after the 3 November session?
What is still unknown is whether the ETF outflows and the post-hack Binance withdrawals settle or resume, since Cointelegraph noted net inflows turned positive at $2.3 billion even as withdrawals kept expanding. The two signals point in different directions on the same day.
A holder can check a few things for themselves without acting:
- Your total BTC exposure across every portfolio in the combined view.
- Whether your price levels are set at the numbers you care about.
- How much of your P&L is currency versus the bitcoin price itself.
For the exchange-risk angle specifically, our piece on what exchange custody risk means covers coins you hold on a venue versus in self-custody.
The bottom line
Bitcoin holding near $76,900 after a dip to $76,300, with $399 million in ETF outflows and a net $4.72 billion pulled from Binance, is a classic case for one combined view and a few well-placed alerts. Checking your exposure is not the same as deciding your next trade, and only the first belongs here.
With PortfolioTrackr you can see crypto and stocks total together, set bitcoin price levels that ping you within a minute around the clock, and read your currency gain as its own line. Choose the levels, let the tracker watch them.
