Top Crypto Analyst Issues Bitcoin Alert, Says BTC at High Risk of Correction as History Threatens To Repeat

A broadly adopted analyst is issuing a warning to merchants about Bitcoin (BTC), saying that historical past suggests the king crypto is at a excessive threat of correcting.

In a brand new technique session, Benjamin Cowen tells his 784,000 YouTube subscribers that the highest crypto asset by market cap tends to interrupt via its bull market assist band through the first half of pre-halving years, however then promptly dips proper again beneath it within the third quarter.

Cowen describes the bull market assist band as a mix of the 20 week exponential shifting common (EMA) and the 21-week easy shifting common (SMA).

To make his case, Cowen cites examples of BTC following the identical sample in 2011, 2015, and 2019.

“So we’ve three examples, which once more you possibly can’t essentially extrapolate from, I’m not asking you to take it to the financial institution, but it surely’s simply that usually, within the pre-halving, years we are going to see Bitcoin do properly for an excellent portion of it, however then someday across the third quarter, we see it fail to carry the bull market assist band.

I feel that’s finally the chance that we’ve to think about: is it going to play out in an analogous method because it has the prior three pre-halving years? Does it fail to carry it, or will this be the primary time that it really holds as assist?”

In line with Cowen, such an occasion might additionally have an effect on different digital property, resembling main good contract platform Ethereum (ETH), as they’re already shifting beneath their bull market assist bands.

“Do word that if [Bitcoin] falls beneath, then that would result in different property after all getting hit fairly arduous as a result of quite a lot of them are already beneath their bull market assist bands.

And for those who had been to go take a look at Ethereum, what’s actually fascinating is that is the week really in 2019 the place Ethereum fell beneath its 20-week estimate and obtained a weekly shut beneath it that then began the downtrend for roughly the second half of the yr…

Ethereum as we speak is de facto near that stage, the 20-week estimate for ETH is at $1,859, so we’re really good at it.”

Bitcoin is buying and selling for $29,331 at time of writing whereas Ethereum is shifting for $1,861.
