Bitcoin steht kurz vor einem Aufwärtstrend – aber nur, wenn diese wichtige Bedingung erfüllt ist

[lklol]

Bitcoin traded as high as $73,000 following a 9% price rally in the past week. However, the broader market suggests the leading cryptocurrency is still stuck in a bear phase that’s been dragging on for more than six months. Interestingly, historical data suggest that recent price movement could trigger a significant bullish rebound, providing investors with a mid-term to long-term relief period.

Bitcoin Nears Key Support Level As Bulls Eye Historical Recovery Run

In an X post on April 11, renowned analyst Ali Martinez shares a positive observation of the Bitcoin price chart, highlighting a cyclical price rally. Notably, this price surge is triggered by a retest of a particular long-standing ascending trendline during an extended correction period, as is being observed. Martinez names this ascending trendline the “Parabolic Guard,” describing it as probably the most consistent technical level in Bitcoin history. Over the last 10 years, a price retest of this support line has consistently preceded a massive rebound. In 2017, Bitcoin’s contact with this trendline produced a staggering 961% gain in the following months.
A similar event was observed in 2018; however, it resulted in a lower yield of 261%. In 2020, Bitcoin’s retest of the Parabolic Guard triggered 1,126% price increase, before the 2022 bear market commenced. The bullish condition was met again later in 2022, resulting in a 660% gain observed over the last four years. According to Martinez, the historic ascending trend line currently runs between $56,000 and $60,000, about 20% below the current market price. Interestingly, the present cycle low lies around $60,000, which Bitcoin formed amid an intense market sell-off in early February.

According to Martinez’s latest post, the market would likely need a return to this market bottom to end the bear market and initiate a long-term recovery. The prominent analyst also explains that Bitcoin’s contact with the Parabolic Guard would slow smart money’s accumulation in anticipation of the next price surge.
