Bitcoin price has done it and made a higher high, setting a new all-time high record above $65,000 according to several exchanges and the TradingView BTCUSD Index. What exactly does this mean for the first-ever cryptocurrency and the current market cycle? Read on to find out. Bitcoin Price Sets New Record ATH Above $65,000 The number one ranked cryptocurrency by market cap has just set another major milestone, and proven to the market that the bull cycle isn’t yet finished. It also means that the April 2021 “top” was nothing more than a mid-cycle pullback before the coin reached its final destination target closer to $100,000 or higher. Related Reading | Bitcoin “Supertrend” Begins As Buy Signals Stack On All Major Timeframes Targets for the cryptocurrency reach as high as several hundred thousands per coin at the conclusion of this cycle. Future estimates have reached as much as $10 million per BTC based on the stock-to-flow model. The recent Bitcoin ETF approval ended any second guessing or speculation over whether or not the bull market had ended, or if a bear market had began. Bear markets don’t have dead cat bounces that lead to new all-time highs. The higher high also keeps the uptrend in tact by the pure definition of the term. There you have it, folks: A new all-time high is set. Where does it end? | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com BTC Back In Price Discovery, What Happens Next? Technicals have suggested this push higher was coming. The monthly Bitcoin RSI is back in the bull zone, and most other technical indicators are leaning bullish on high timeframes. What has thrown many market participants off, has been an overheated technical picture on the daily that is heavily dominated by the higher timeframe signals. Related Reading | Bitcoin Price Prepares To Blast Off Back Into RSI “Bull Zone” With no resistance above, the market will be less likely to sell or go short, because there is no telling how high Bitcoin price could go from here. Each successive peak will cause the same wide-sweeping question if the top is in, until it is. This could make for a final leg up that moves faster than most are expecting, with very few or limited pullbacks to buy in. What’s worse, is that the final leg of a bull run usually does mean a bear market is coming, and is due to arrive the moment the actual peak is in.

Bitcoin price this morning touched $50,000 – a feat that might have have made a bear market look a lot less likely. But bulls could be celebrating too early, and a max pain scenario of a symmetrical triangle few currently see could end up shaking up both bears and bulls in the days ahead. Here is a much closer look at the symmetrical triangle, what the corrective pattern suggests, and why bulls certainly aren’t out of the woods just yet. Downtrend Remains Unbroken, Symmetrical Triangle Possible Downtrends can be deceiving. They don’t always necessarily mean a bear market, and even if a downtrend line is broken, another one can form higher and prevent the reaction bulls are expecting. Related Reading | Could A Bitcoin Bull Flag Leave Bears Blindsided? For example, when Bitcoin broke out from bear market downtrend resistance, the early 2019 rally to $13,000 was the result. However, because of the new downtrend line created at that high, Bitcoin spent another full year and then some below the new downtrend resistance. There is still one more downtrend resistance to go before bulls are out of the woods | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com Assets often must clear three opposing trendlines for the primary trend to resume. This situation is happening now, but on much smaller time scales. Bitcoin price has made it through two downtrend lines, but one is left. Drawing a symmetrical support line provides the potential for the triangle that few technical analysts are talking about currently. Valid trendlines tend to have at least three touches, but the third touch could provide the final E-wave of a triangle corrective pattern during a bull market. The wave 4 correction could be an Elliott Wave triangle pattern | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com Bitcoin Price Corrective Wave Could Be Nearing Its End The E-wave could clear out any positions built at support around $40,000, crushing bulls who went all in on what they thought was a bull flag breakout. The move would also restore bearish exuberance, and push Bitcoin price back into the $30,000 range to suck in more short positions. Only then might Bitcoin price make it through the top downtrend line to continue higher. But it all depends on where the E-wave “terminates.” It is worth noting that a such a triangle during a bull market often leads to new highs. Related Reading | Bulls Regain Control Over Bitcoin Trend Strength: What To Expect An Elliott Wave corrective triangle will appear during a wave 2 or 4 of a motive wave, which represents the primary trend. An Elliott wave corrective triangle and its higher lows would keep the bull run structure in tact, and fit the Elliott Wave rule of wave alternation. If Bitcoin is in a motive wave, wave 5 should begin soon | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com This rule suggests that only one of the two corrective waves – wave 2 or 4 – will result in a sharp correction. The other would be a sideways correction lacking a lower low. Not only do corrective waves tend to alternate in overall severity, the patterns tend to switch. This means that if wave 2 was an Elliott Wave zig-zag, then wave 4 would be a flat, triangle, or other pattern. Eliott Wave Theory provides the roadmap for a trend. The roadmap continues to say until proven otherwise, that once wave 4 ends, wave 5 begins. But for now, bulls aren’t yet out of the woods and a sweep of lows could still be possible.
