All eyes are currently on Bitcoin price<\/a>, as the leading crypto by market cap has taken a pause in its parabolic advance<\/a>, and the market watches and waits to see which direction the value of the asset goes in next.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the longest bear market on record, market participants are still in disbelief. Meanwhile, the bullish momentum is undeniable as Bitcoin sliced through resistance at $6,000, $7,000, and even $8,000 with relative ease before taking a much needed breather. According to one prominent crypto analyst, the indecision has caused Bitcoin price<\/a> to form a symmetrical triangle, which typically indicates a 60% chance of continuation from the direction the initial advance was made \u2013 in this case, a continuation to the upside and an attempt at $10,000.<\/span><\/p>\n

Price charts across all financial markets all at one point or another will form repeating patterns that investors, traders, and analysts alike will use as part of their technical analysis in hopes of predicting future movements. These patterns are often created due to the emotion-driven buying and selling and overall market participant psychology in reaction to price swings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Depending on how sentiment is skewing, these patterns can appear more bullish or bearish, while others can be neutral, signaling indecision across the market.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Bullkowksi\u2019s The Pattern Site<\/a>, a symmetrical triangle breaks upward 60% of the time, after it reaches roughly 73% of its way toward the triangle apex.<\/span><\/p>\n
