BTC May Correct 8% Before the Golden Cross Is Validated: Analyst

  • CryptoCon warned traders today that BTC may undergo a short-term correction.
  • The analyst’s prediction comes after a Golden Cross formed on BTC’s daily chart.
  • Despite the bearish outlook, CryptoCon believes that the Golden Cross may be validated after the correction.

The technical analyst CryptoCon warned in an X post earlier today that Bitcoin (BTC) may see its price drop in the short term. His prediction comes after a significant bullish technical flag, known as a Golden Cross, was triggered on the market leader’s daily chart.

A Golden Cross is when the 50-day moving average (MA) crosses above the 200-day MA line. Traders tend to identify this as a strong buy signal and a potential sign that a cryptocurrency’s long-term trend is transitioning to bullish. Recently, this bullish technical flag was triggered on the leading cryptocurrency’s daily chart.

Subsequently, many traders and investors anticipate a rally in BTC’s price, which could potentially be followed by a broader market rally. Despite this, CryptoCon believes that the market may undergo a brief correction in the short term before entering into another leg up.

The analyst based his prediction on BTC’s price movements shortly after historical occurrences of a Golden Cross. According to the post, BTC typically experiences around an 8% decline. Should history repeat itself with this latest occurrence, BTC’s price may retrace to around $31,600. 

Thereafter, the analyst believes that BTC may enter into a strong move. According to CryptoCon, two of the past seven Golden Cross events on BTC’s chart took place just before the market entered into a bull run. Furthermore, another two came right before BTC’s price underwent a meteoric rise.

At press time, CoinMarketCap indicated that BTC suffered a slight loss over the past 24 hours. Consequently, the cryptocurrency was down 0.09%. This dragged the cryptocurrency’s price down to $34,290.20. The latest drop in price nudged BTC’s weekly performance further into the red zone, taking it down to -0.44%.

BTC was able to reach a high of $34,843.94 throughout the past day of trading. Since then, it has retraced to trade at its current level. As a result, BTC was trading closer to its daily low of $34,110.97.

Shiba Inu Poised To Destroy A Zero: Here's When

The Shiba Inu network is setting its sights on a significant milestone in the world of crypto currencies: the eradication of a decimal point. In crypto lingo, “eliminating a zero” is the term used when a coin’s price increases tenfold, effectively shifting its decimal point to the right. While this journey may be lengthy, it is by no means unattainable, and the SHIB community is abuzz with anticipation.
