Bitcoin<\/a> and other cryptocurrencies are having a strong year thus far, however, the rally is only expected to continue with the asset\u2019s halving on the horizon this Ma<\/a>y. <\/span>But how much could Bitcoin spike ahead of the monumental event? <\/span><\/p>\n According to historical analysis<\/a> of previous market cycles in comparison to where the market may be right now, it suggests that the first-ever cryptocurrency is ready to surge another over 80% prior to the halving.<\/span><\/p>\n The crypto market sentiment index has recently begun to teeter back toward fear from the extreme greed reached last week as Bitcoin<\/a> surged above $10,000 for the first time in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n The important level failed to hold, causing the fifth-largest one-hour drop in Bitcoin\u2019s history ever recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n Related Reading | Bitcoin Halving Overhyped: Previous Cycle Led to Another 6-Month Crypto Winter\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The crash took the price of the first-ever cryptocurrency back to $9,300<\/a>, where it has currently held at weekly support.<\/span><\/p>\n The drop caused the market to panic, expecting a break of the recent parabola to drive prices down further. <\/span>But retesting and holding former resistance as support is incredibly bullish.<\/span><\/p>\n When comparing the previous Bitcoin market cycles<\/a>, after the cryptocurrency held support at a similar level as current price action, the cryptocurrency explodes by 83%. However, it ultimately failed to make a new all-time high.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n If the same thing happens again, Bitcoin will surge to over $17,000 before another short-lived downtrend cuts the gains down to size.<\/span><\/p>\n After the next, shorter downtrend is over, Bitcoin<\/a> goes full parabolic and sets a new all-time high \u2013 according to the comparison.<\/span><\/p>\n Further supporting the idea that Bitcoin<\/a> has more to rally, is a comparison to the early 2019 rally<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n On the way up after the breakout in April 2019, the leading crypto by market cap formed a golden cross of the 50-day and 200-day moving averages<\/a>. Immediately after this occurrence, Bitcoin plummeted just under 10%.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Just days ago, Bitcoin formed yet another golden cross<\/a>, and the same exact drop happened once again.<\/span><\/p>\n Much like last time, analysts were watching a convergence of moving averages that would act as support for any pullbacks, but the golden cross proved to be too powerful, and the moving averages were never tested.<\/span><\/p>\n Related Reading | This 90-Year-Old Indicator Says Bitcoin Uptrend Is Just Getting Started\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Instead, Bitcoin rocketed higher, taking the cryptocurrency to $14,000 \u2013 much higher than anyone expected just months after trading at $3,000.<\/span><\/p>\n That move resulted in an $11,000 move upward. Bitcoin was just trading around $6,500, and another $11,000 push from there would take Bitcoin<\/a> price to a target of roughly $17,500 – right where the past cycle comparison lines up with the pre-halving peak.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The pattern of peaks and troughs would greatly resemble a five-wave impulse move up, according to Elliott Wave Theory<\/a>. This also exactly matches the last market cycle.<\/span><\/p>\nBitcoin Price Ready for Another 80% Rally After Latest Pullback<\/span><\/h2>\n
