Bitcoin has been pretty quiet lately, hovering around $94,000. But one analyst thinks things are about to get interesting.
A Pivotal Moment for Bitcoin?
Crypto analyst Ali Martinez has shared his take on Bitcoin’s price, suggesting it’s at a crucial point. Will we see a big price jump, or a significant drop? It all depends on which chart pattern plays out.
Two Scenarios: Bullish Breakout or Bearish Correction?
Martinez’s analysis focuses on two patterns visible on the 12-hour Bitcoin chart: a head-and-shoulders pattern and a bull pennant.
-
Head-and-Shoulders: This pattern often signals a price reversal, meaning a shift from an upward trend to a downward one. If Bitcoin breaks below the “neckline” of this pattern (around $93,000), the price could plummet to approximately $67,000.
-
Bull Pennant:
This pattern usually suggests a continuation of an upward trend. If Bitcoin stays above the neckline and breaks out of the bull pennant, a significant price increase to around $140,000 is possible—a nearly 50% jump from the current price.
