Bitcoin price<\/a> just set a new all-time high today, and then immediately dropped $500 and is trading below the former peak once again. Murmurs of a “double top” scenario have been making rounds across the speculation-driven crypto community.<\/p>\n

However, one well-known crypto trader and analyst explains why such a scenario is nearly impossible, due to the requirements involved in confirming the technical chart pattern.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Sets New All-Time High, Drops $800 Immediately After<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin price set a new all-time high<\/a> of $19,863 on Binance and beat the former peak on other spot crypto exchanges like Coinbase and Bitstamp, certifying the historic moment.<\/p>\n

Within minutes of the achievement, however, the leading cryptocurrency by market cap plunged by $800 and is back holding onto $19,000 as support.<\/p>\n

The rejection here after a new peak was set, and even before as Bitcoin has previously stopped short of a new high, sparked discussion and wild speculation over a possible “double top” scenario.<\/p>\n

Double tops occur<\/a> when an asset peaks at or around the same resistance level at the height of two rallies. The resistance that is created, can often be unbreakable and causes a complete reversal – hence being called a “top.”<\/p>\n

But like any chart patterns, they must meet certain requirements to “confirm” as “valid,” and according to one well-known crypto trader, the scenario is just nonsense.<\/p>\n

Crypto Trader Breaks Down Why BTC Won’t Double Top<\/h2>\n
According to DJ, analyst, and trader Scott Melker, who goes by The Wolf Of All Streets moniker on Twitter<\/a> and elsewhere, a “double top” is extremely unlikely.<\/p>\n
Melker explains that the requirements to confirm such a pattern as valid would require a break of the swing low between each of the two tops.<\/p>\n
The swing low being Bitcoin’s bottom at $3,200. If Black Thursday couldn’t break it<\/a>, most likely nothing will, and it becomes even more unlikely with the cryptocurrency so close to breaking out into a bull market.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Melker outlines that the target of such a structure would be roughly -$16,000 \u2013 as in a negative price per BTC.<\/p>\n
Unlike oil that requires a hefty cost to store, Bitcoin prices would not fall into negative territory<\/a>. Zero is of course possible but is at this point less feasible than $100,000 per coin.<\/p>\n
Bitcoin topping here isn’t all that bad, either. The first-ever crypto-asset could be forming a massive ascending triangle<\/a> formation \u2013 a bullish technical continuation pattern.<\/p>\n
