Two Paths Of A Bitcoin Bull Run, And If A Bear Phase Is Next

Bitcoin price has plummeted more than 50% from recent highs, falling to as low as $30,000 in a matter of a flash. The selloff was enough to shock the entire market, causing the most liquidations and coins to be deposited since Black Thursday. There’s now talk of the bull run being over, however, there’s potentially two different paths that the cryptocurrency could take according to the RSI and past bull market performance. Is The Top Of The Crypto Bull Run In? After more than one full year of an uptrend, the volatile crypto market wiped out months of progress in days. The sharp reversal caused a 50% drop across the board, and it was enough to spook the market. Related Reading | Bear Phase Fractal Warns Of Pain, Bitcoin Bull Market To Remain Unbroken Several top signals also appeared, such as the Pi Cycle Top indicator, and the Relative Strength Index reaching overbought levels on the monthly. The monthly RSI, however, has been swatted down by bears and back into the normal range of the oscillator. The monthly RSI is looking especially bearish | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com There is also a bearish divergence stretching across past bull cycle tops, which could provide clues as to what’s to come. If bears can close the monthly Relative Strength Index back below overbought levels, then the bull market could be over according to scenario B from 2017. Scenario A, however, shows bull holding the key level, and making another drastic push higher to finish the bull market. Stormy Bitcoin Forecast Could Lead To Unexpected Scenario In scenario A, the stock-to-flow model should be proven accurate, and the leading cryptocurrency by market cap will head towards hundreds of thousands of dollars per coin. But what if the stock-to-flow model, and every major analyst that’s glanced at a Bitcoin chart is dead wrong about expectations, or something catastrophic happens?  It sounds unrealistic, but nothing is guaranteed in markets – not even the success of Bitcoin. Droves of analysts have produced charts that demonstrate what that path to hundreds of thousands looks like, but what might a devastating collapse look like instead? Beware of a weak spot in the Ichimoku cloud | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com If a bear market takes place now and with the stock-to-flow model causing expectations to be so high, the short investment horizon of impatient investors could lead to a sharper selloff if BTC isn’t trading at hundreds of thousands before the year’s end. A bull market failure and failure to produce the results investors are expecting, could cause investors to abandoned the cryptocurrency completely. Unless they’re in it for the tech. Forewarning of such an event, is a weak spot in the monthly Ichimoku cloud.

A breakdown could set the trajectory for passing through the Kumo twist, which is a common setup according to how the indicator itself works. And while anyone even remotely bullish on Bitcoin would immediately write this off, there’s no denying the cloud twist is there. Bulls also didn’t see the recent crash coming – could they also be blind to this possibility? Featured image from iStockPhoto, Charts from TradingView.com

Why The Chaos In Bitcoin And Crypto Is Only Beginning

Bitcoin price plummeted faster and lower than anyone expected, leaving behind a trail of liquidations and investors in shock. Crypto prices across the board tanked by more than 50%, and in most cases have already rebounded by at least 25% of what was lost. The sudden rollercoaster after such a steep ascent makes sense, sending volatility soaring. Except even with this much mayhem across the market right now, it is still nothing compared to what the cryptocurrency is used to. This fact could suggest that the bull market has only just begun with the latest crash. Comparing Crypto To A Thrill-Filled Theme Park Ride Theme parks can be a blast. Rollercoasters are especially fun, but definitely can give you a good scare. The ride starts slowly, slow building and rising in a methodical manner to keep anticipation climbing as heights increase. Once you get high enough, it is hard not to stop paying full attention to the ride to get a load of the view. It is in that moment when the momentum turns and in a flash you’re back where your started. Sound familiar? Related Reading | Lack Of “Capitulation” Volume Suggests Bitcoin Is Doomed To More Downside Bitcoin, like rollercoasters, can have a lot of twists and turns, and this latest crash hasn’t been very different than the cryptocurrency’s usual behaviors. The last year of “only up” has been a lot more unusual. Bitcoin usually rises and falls, wiping out 60 to 70% from the price per coin and market cap. It is only now with a mere 50% crash that volatility is picking up, suggesting either further collapse, only the start of the bull run, or possibly both scenarios. Historical volatility suggests that the Bitcoin is only just getting warmed up | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com HODL On: Notorious Bitcoin Volatility Has Only Just Returned Historical volatility is a tool used to measure – just like it sounds – how volatile an asset is throughout its history. When Bitcoin was in the earliest phases of price discovery, volatility was insanely high, and after the dust settled, it stayed flat for several years. It wasn’t until late 2017 when although prices had appreciated in crypto, the bull market really got going and historical volatility returned to Bitcoin. Related Reading | Bear Phase Fractal Warns Of Pain, Bitcoin Bull Market To Remain Unbroken Except it lasted for an even shorter phase than before. Even the small bullish impulse to $14,000 in mid-2019 resulted in more volatility overall in the cryptocurrency market. Today, even with a massive $28,000 per coin collapse, volatility in Bitcoin is still uncharacteristically low. This latest shock to the market, might only be the start of a storm that’s to come. Can you hold on and survive? Featured image from iStockPhotos, Charts from TradingView.com

Double Bottom On The Dollar Could Be The End Of Bitcoin Rally

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and just about every other asset on the planet trades against the dollar on its most liquid trading pair, and the greenback is the base currency that all exchanges rates are based on. The power and influence of the almighty dollar cannot be understated, and the crypto market could soon feel the surprising sting of the global reserve currency. A double bottom could be forming on the dollar, with a hidden bullish signal that could bring a hurting to the currently overheated stock and crypto market. Here’s a closer at the double bottom formation that could put a stop to Bitcoin’s bull market. Double-Bottom Forms On The Dollar Currency Index The slow death of the dollar has let equities and crypto assets like Bitcoin fly like never before, during a time when the economy was on pause and unemployment was climbing. Stimulus money kept things afloat, while those who didn’t need the money for essentials bought shares of GameSpot and hundreds of thousands of DOGE. Related Reading | Broken Parabola: Mapping Out The Bitcoin Bull Market And More The soaring market caps of assets everywhere was a glaring sign that inflation was getting out of hand, and the US government has been taking steps to reel things in. And it has already taken a toll on Bitcoin, resulting in the top cryptocurrency returning to below $55,000. Recent comments about stock market “froth,” “risk appetite,” and a random warning today from the SEC that Bitcoin is a “highly speculative” asset are suspect in terms of timing. At the same time, an Adam and Eve double bottom could be forming on the DXY Dollar Currency Index, and it is ready to take a dent out of crypto gains. Is an Adam and Eve bottom forming on the dollar? | Source: DXY on TradingView.com Why Bitcoin Could Be In Trouble If The Greenback Bounces An Adam and Eve double bottom is a rare structure that results in new highs. Failure, sends the asset tumbling even lower than the support level that greenback bulls are attempting to confirm as ironclad. This type of double bottom structure is also found on the likes of Litecoin and other cryptocurrency price charts. Superimposing the Bitcoin price chart specifically over the same DXY price chart, with the logarithmic MACD activated, things become more clear regarding the bearish change in trend that could be taking place. Bitcoin could be due for a reversal if the DXY rips higher | Source: DXY on TradingView.com The last major rebound and bullish crossover in the DXY also was the peak of the 2017 bull market. The dollar bounced sharply, while the first ever cryptocurrency started a bear market.

Bear Phase Fractal Warns Of Pain, Bitcoin Bull Market To Remain Unbroken

The rug was just pulled across crypto, wiping out gains from the past week and then some. Bitcoin is now back at prices from March, and is at risk of falling deeper into a bear phase according to a fractal found in the recent price action. What’s notable, is that the same fractal suggests that the bull market isn’t yet over, despite the change to a bear trend for the time being. Here’s what the trajectory of Bitcoin could look like based on Elliott Wave Theory, the LMACD, and the recent reversal across crypto. Bitcoin Price Plummets Back Below $50,000, Matches Breakdown From 2019 A fractal is a repeating pattern that is found all throughout nature, or in this case, finance. On the price charts of coins, stocks, commodities and more, patterns can repeat again and again in a similar manner. Related Reading | Broken Parabola: Mapping Out The Bitcoin Bull Market And More Each pattern can even result in similar price action upon completion. For example, Black Thursday matched the second plunge of the 2014-2015 bear market bottom. Is this fractal from 2019 repeating once again? | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com The recent price action in Bitcoin, almost perfectly matches the first major correction since the bull market began – back in June 2019. Both times the logarithmic MACD crossed bearish, and the candle structure on high timeframes is strikingly similar. What Elliott Wave Theory And Momentum Indicators Say About The Bull Market If the fractal is accurate and produces similar results, Bitcoin could spend the next six months or so in a downtrend. The bear phase could reach a similar scope and severity as the 2019 peak, considering that the recent price parabola has been broken. A bear phase is more than likely to now follow, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the bull market is over. Elliott waves could provide clues to this market cycle’s conclusion | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com For those unfamiliar with Elliott Wave Theory, the study focuses on market impulses based on extreme changes in sentiment. Within each major “motive wave” are typically five impulse waves. If the primary wave is up, and Bitcoin has been in “always up” territory  since its inception, then odd numbers waves are also up, with even waves moving against the primary trend. Related Reading | Double Bottom On The Dollar Could Be The End Of Bitcoin Rally Early 2019 would have acted as wave one of five, with the downtrend of wave two concluding on Black Thursday. That bounce began wave three, in which according to Elliott Wave characteristics, is “undeniable.” Wave four is a bit more tricky. It can sure feel like the top is in, but if wave three just ended, Bitcoin bulls’ best hope is that wave four is next. Wave four according to the practice, won’t ever retrace back into wave one’s path. This means that Bitcoin price will never again go below $13,800. If it does, it could suggest a failure, and the top cryptocurrency could be in serious trouble. Featured image from iStockPhotos, Charts from TradingView.com
