The latest Bitcoin uptrend is its most powerful yet<\/a>, and while momentum has clearly been up for some time, an ominous sell signal has appeared. And while the cryptocurrency has shown little signs of slowdown, the top-sniping signal that perfectly called the 2019 peak is back again.<\/p>\n Will this sequence-based signal result in near flawless market timing once again?
