FOMO has returned to the crypto market in a major way, now that Bitcoin has set a new all-time high price record<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But as more buyers pile in after an already nearly 200% rally in 2020, indicators are reaching extreme readings of overbought conditions, that nearly every time in the past has resulted in a strong correction. Here’s why this time won’t be different, and why the leading cryptocurrency by market cap is overdue for a steep correction.<\/p>\n

FOMO Reaches Frenzy Level As Bitcoin Sets New All-Time High<\/h2>\n

Bitcoin is now back on nearly everyone’s radar<\/a>. The cryptocurrency is making headlines on mainstream media outlets everywhere, celebrities are getting in on the action, and institutions and hedge funds are quietly absorbing as much of the supply as they can.<\/p>\n

“Smart money” has been loading up on Bitcoin over the last two to three years of bear market and holding for the eventual post-halving bull run<\/a> that’s long been anticipated.<\/p>\n

Even retail FOMO<\/a> has begun to return crypto, but all the buying has resulted in extremely overbought conditions, according to the Relative Strength Index.<\/p>\n

Relative Strength Index: Overbought Conditions Reach Extreme, Correction Always Follows<\/h2>\n

When examining the timeframe that had the most consecutive green candle closes, the three-day Relative Strength Index<\/a> very clearly shows just how overbought Bitcoin is currently. It also explains why a massive correction in crypto is largely overdue.<\/p>\n

The RSI reached such a peak at the 2017 high, resulting in an immediate 70% decline and kicked off the bear market.

That small snapshot of price action suggests that there are two scenarios: a sharp correction here, or another ridiculous run to $31,000 before a short-term downtrend cuts as much as 58% off current levels<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The bottom target could be as low as $8,000 in that scenario. As unlikely as it may be, the average correction from the last two bear market peaks confirms the possibility is plausible based on the data alone.<\/p>\n
