- Several indicators suggest Bitcoin’s price may be nearing a market bottom, potentially sparking a bull rally.
Bitcoin [BTC] experienced a significant price correction last week, causing concerns among investors. However, there might be a change in the wind, as some indicators hint at a possible trend reversal. This notion is based on BTC’s price pattern, which appears to be reflecting its 2017 trend.
Bitcoin’s Historical Trend
Investors saw a decrease in profits last week as BTC’s price chart remained in the red. Data from CoinMarketCap showed BTC’s price falling by over 6% in the past week, bringing it below the $67k threshold. At the moment, BTC is trading at $66,896.42 with a market capitalization exceeding $1.32 trillion.
Recently, Milkybull, a well-known cryptocurrency analyst, shared a tweet that pointed out an intriguing development. According to the tweet, BTC’s price trend is mirroring its 2017 pattern, which was followed by a bull rally. The tweet suggested that BTC’s price might be approaching a market bottom and could potentially trigger a bull rally if history repeats itself. A bullish divergence was also noted, similar to the one observed in 2017.
Is BTC Gearing Up for a Rally?
AMBCrypto’s analysis of Glassnode’s data revealed another bullish indicator. According to BTC’s Pi Cycle Top indicator, Bitcoin’s price is currently at its market bottom. If a trend reversal occurs, it could potentially reach $89k.
Data from CryptoQuant was examined to see if the metrics also hinted at a potential price increase. The exchange reserve of BTC was found to be decreasing, indicating a reduction in selling pressure on BTC. The Binary CDD was also in the green, suggesting that the movements of long-term holders in the past week were below average. This could mean they are holding onto their coins. However, other metrics appeared bearish.
For example, BTC’s aSORP suggested that more investors are selling at a profit, which could potentially exacerbate BTC’s already bearish price trend. Furthermore, BTC’s fear and greed index stood at 63% at the time of writing, indicating a “greed” phase in the market. This usually signifies a high chance of a price drop. Other market indicators, such as its Chaikin Money Flow (CMF), also showed a significant downturn.
On the other hand, the Money Flow Index (MFI) was supportive of the bulls as it moved upwards from the neutral mark.
