Bitcoin price is back at $37,000<\/a>, recovering from a frightening plunge to as low as $30,000. The selloff struck fear into the market unlike never before, making buying the dip a scary risk to take.<\/p>\n However, there’s several signs that the bottom could be in, all while sentiment has turned fully bearish and the market expects far deeper lows. Could that in and of itself be a sign the bottom is in?<\/p>\n The recent peak in Bitcoin price<\/a> was a “top” that very few saw coming even though from a technical standpoint, it was obvious. BTC was moving off exchanges and fundamentals supported much higher prices, but after such a strong run up, the top trending cryptocurrency was bound to correct.<\/p>\n And correct it did \u2013 by a full 50% and then some. Historically it is one of the most severe bull market corrections. The severity of the Black Thursday move caused a polar opposite reaction to the upside.<\/p>\n Related Reading | Volatility Ahead: Why The Chaos In Bitcoin And Crypto Is Only Beginning<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n But could a similar severity in the recent collapse also be a catalyst for propelling prices much higher<\/a>, and not the beginning of a bear market as many would expect? For one, sentiment is ripe for a reversal.<\/p>\n The crypto market fear and greed index is at one of the most frightened readings yet, after spending nearly a full year in greed mode. Contrarian investors<\/a> all recommend buying the blood in the streets and being greedy when others are fearful. Being fearful while others were greedy, clearly has paid off for anyone who took out a short position at the top<\/a> \u2013 as rare as that may have been.<\/p>\n But there’s a lot more signs out there than that.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Perhaps the biggest technical factor suggesting that Bitcoin has bottomed, is the fact that three-day Relative Strength Index<\/a> has bounced off an ascending trendline that’s supported all of the past bottoms in crypto.<\/p>\n There’s a bounce in December 2018 and again on Black Thursday \u2013 and once again now. A similar story can be seen in the chart above which also includes a look at how the 2017 bull market held a similar rising support structure.<\/p>\n Related Reading | Broken Parabola: Mapping Out The Bitcoin Bull Market And More<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n A bottom here, suggests one more impulse in Bitcoin<\/a> before the bull market has ended. That means that the pain from the recent shakeout isn’t yet over, as sellers could be forced to FOMO back in a much higher prices, helping to drive the fury of the final impulse.<\/p>\n Interestingly, the crash landed right where the parabolic curve<\/a> for the greater bull trend would support another base to rise higher, adding more credence to the bottom being in.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nRecapping The Recent Crypto Market Correction<\/h2>\n
