Bitcoin just recently made quite a jump to $74, 000 and that has really set the debate among traders on fire. Some think the crypto has hit its lowest point while others remain pessimistic and think it could go even lower. The sharply contrasting opinions just go on to demonstrate how uncertain BTC’s price path is still.
Bearish Signs: History Could Repeat?
Bitcoin Hyper observes that BTC, in the previous two cycles, made a local high about 140, 150 days after its all, time high before declining.
Dossiers argue that BTC’s present technical pattern is so much like that of the 2022 bear market where a further drop of below $60, 000 might be in store.
Trader Bitcoin Isaiah aligns himself with this view and after calling the move to $74, 000 the ‘perfect local top indicator, ‘ he cautions that the bulls’ early celebrations might backfire and cause them to be dumped even more.
