Bitcoin (BTC)<\/a> has been on something of a tear as of late. You know that, of course, but the strength of this move shouldn’t be understated. In the past six weeks, the crypto asset has moved from $4,200 to $8,300 \u2014 a growth of nearly 100% \u2014 while altcoins have also seen lofty gains.<\/p>\n Yet, throughout this entire swing to the upside, there have been analysts incessantly calling for a correction, looking to charts to accentuate that Bitcoin rallying here is uncalled for. The technicals would agree. On-chain data shows, however, that BTC is still looking strong, and could continue even higher, barring a bad news event or another bearish catalyst of a similar caliber.<\/p>\n Bitcoin’s monumental surge over the past couple of months has caught traders with their pants down, there’s no doubt about it. Almost no one expected for the asset to pass $6,000, let alone $8,000 in early-2019. Yet here we are, sitting above a level that was a quixotic dream just months ago. Some now claim that it is a perfect time for the asset to retrace, however.<\/p>\n As NewsBTC reported previously<\/a>, the last time Bitcoin’s chart looked as it did now, a strong pullback ensued. Analyst Josh Rager recently pointed out that during 2015’s recovery out of a brutal bear market, which was much like the one seen in 2018, BTC bottomed around $200, accumulated around $300 for months, went parabolic to tap $500, and then saw a 40% pullback. What\u2019s more, the three-day Super Guppy, a key long-term trend indicator, didn\u2019t signal a \u201cbuy\u201d (green) until after the pullback.<\/p>\n https:\/\/twitter.com\/Josh_Rager\/status\/83992576<\/p>\n Sound familiar? Well, that\u2019s because Bitcoin is seemingly doing effectively the exact same thing, but in an entirely different price region. If history is followed to an exact tee, BTC may top out around this region, plunge by approximately 40% to the low-$5,000s, and then slowly return to the $6,000 and $7,000 region.<\/p>\n And from there, as trader Horn Hairs points out, the cryptocurrency market should enter a period of consolidation, during which investors will be given a second chance to accumulate Bitcoin.<\/p>\n $BTC<\/a> The last parabola that broke us out of a bear market resulted in a near 7 month consolidation. With alts at their ATL supports against USD, if this sort of consolidation happens again on BTC after it tops (likely), we could be in for the REAL #altseason<\/a>. pic.twitter.com\/c3WwncLyda<\/a><\/p>\n — HornHairs \ud83c\udf0a (@CryptoHornHairs) May 11, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nRelated Reading: Study: Despite Perceived Riskiness, Bitcoin Has a Higher Risk-Return Ratio Than Most Traditional Assets<\/a><\/h6>\n
