Market Cycle Fractal Suggests So"},"content":{"rendered":"

Over the past few weeks, Bitcoin<\/a> (BTC) has found itself consolidating in the low-$7,000s, holding this key support region as bears threaten the cryptocurrency’s demise. While this consolidation has been bullish, in that selling pressure has abated for weeks, setting the stage for a bullish reversal, a market cycle analysis by a popular crypto trader suggests that the pain is just beginning for Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

Popular trader Rampage recently noted<\/a> that Bitcoin is showing signs that it is in the midst of a repeating cycle, one seen twice in the asset’s history.<\/p>\n

The cycle is marked by a parabolic and rounded blow-off top, consolidation near said top, a strong drop to test a historical uptrend, a secondary top formed below the primary blow-off top, then a collapse under the aforementioned historical uptrend to enter a bear market phase.<\/p>\n

Should this pattern be of current relevance, Bitcoin is in the midst of forming a secondary top, and is thus poised to break through the historical uptrend line at ~$5,000 to enter a potentially multi-year-long bear phase.<\/p>\n
