Bitcoin has been subject to troubling price action over the past week.<\/p>\n

Since the May highs of $10,000 established in the wake of the halving, the cryptocurrency has been in a clear downtrend, with BTC now trading at $8,800 as of the time of this article’s writing. At the local lows, Bitcoin<\/a> traded as low as $8,600 on some exchanges \u2014 approximately 15% shy of the highs.<\/p>\n

It should come as no surprise that some have taken the recent price action as a death knell for Bitcoin’s bull trend, which began in March when the asset rallied strongly off the $3,700 lows<\/a>. Yet the bearish trend may soon come to an end.<\/p>\n

Crucial fundamental and technical factors, in fact, have shown that BTC is primed to revert back into a rally after the recent correction. Three of these factors are as follows.<\/p>\n

#1: Bitcoin Prints Textbook Falling Wedge Pattern<\/h2>\n

According to a prominent crypto trader, Bitcoin is printing a textbook bullish sign: a falling wedge.<\/p>\n

Falling wedges, studies suggest, have a high likelihood of breaking higher. Such patterns have also preceded strong gains in the Bitcoin market over the past few months.<\/p>\n

#2: Tensions Between the U.S. and China Grow; Yuan Crushed<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Since our last report on the situation between the U.S. and China due to the Hong Kong democracy movement,<\/a> things have become worse due to fears of sanctions.<\/p>\n

The Chinese yuan, as Twitter account “Yuan Talks” noted, is at its weakest level since September 2019 \u2014 the peak of the 2019 trade war.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin stands to benefit as it can act as a safe-haven for Chinese investors trying to mitigate the risks of a falling domestic currency.<\/p>\n

Chris Burniske, a partner at Placeholder Capital, explained:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf China\u2019s CNY continues to weaken against USD, then we could have a 2015 and 2016 repeat, where BTC strength coincided with yuan weakness.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
