Bitcoin<\/a> bulls and bears alike are watching the recent price action like a hawk ready to strike at the first sign of opportunity. Thus far, bulls have been winning the recent battles<\/a> and appear to be regaining control<\/a>. However, the bear market has been a long one with many surprises, twists, and downturns. <\/span><\/p>\n

History often repeats, which is cause for alarm for bulls as in the past the bullish \u201cgolden cross\u201d that just occurred in Bitcoin price charts, ended up being a fakeout that was was quickly followed by a steep retracement that resulted in a bearish death cross. The historical price action is the focal point of much analysis throughout the crypto space, as investors and traders wonder where Bitcoin\u2019s next big move may take the market next.<\/span><\/p>\n

The charts clearly depict that the first death cross in each bear market happened in the month of April, ramping the bearish momentum up further. After that, price action remains bearish for the following year through to April, when a fakeout golden cross occurs. Shortly after the price falls again, making another death cross, until the actual golden cross happens later in the year in the month of October.<\/span><\/p>\n

If today\u2019s Bitcoin price action follows the same path and behavior as the 2014-2015 cycle, and it has followed it eerily closely thus far, Bitcoin could fall in the coming days to retest support, making a death cross yet again, before resuming bullish price momentum and causing another, real golden cross on price charts in October.<\/span><\/p>\n
