The scenario paints an image of impending volatility, with each bullish and bearish narratives rising from this usually foreboding sample.
“The BTC Double Prime nonetheless stays intact,” tweeted Rekt Capital, emphasizing the technical construction’s significance. He continues, “Weekly Bearish Divergence lends further bearish confluence to this construction as nicely. Extra, the bear div is creating a brand new decrease excessive (dotted inexperienced) relative to its main downtrend (strong inexperienced).” Nonetheless, BTC would wish to drop a further -9% to -13% from present costs to finish its potential double prime.

However what makes this evaluation notably intriguing is the present state of Bitcoin’s quantity. Rekt Capital additional observes, “What’s fascinating in regards to the quantity behind BTC’s worth motion is that the 2 latest peaks fashioned on inclining quantity whereas the RSI fashioned decrease highs.” For a lot of, this simultaneous enhance in quantity with descending RSI hints at underlying market weak point, an perception additional supported by the following declining quantity after the native prime at roughly $31,000.
Diving deeper in his video evaluation, Rekt Capital highlighted the necessity for a definite “M”-shaped formation, an indicator of the double prime sample. “For Bitcoin to type a double prime right here, we have now to see an ‘M’-shaped formation happen. Once we see a M type, that’s primarily a double prime. One prime right here [at $30,800] and one prime right here [at $31,300].”
Shedding pivotal help ranges may invite substantial downward motion. “Shedding this [neckline] degree at $26,000 as help would allow additional draw back,” warns the analyst. Nonetheless, for merchants and buyers hoping for symmetrical habits, Rekt Capital speculates, “And if we see symmetry right here, a 3 month second a part of this M may type in order that’s going to immediate additional draw back and simply gradual bleeding into that 90 day-mark which might be round subsequent month.”
However not all is bleak. Ought to Bitcoin hint again to $24,000, a retracement would “see us retest the neckline of this inverse head & shoulders that we noticed get away.” Rekt Capital provides, “So a retest of this degree as a brand new help ought to truly allow additional upside.”
Additionally, a take a look at the 1-week chart additionally exhibits that there’s one other state of affairs for the invalidation of the double prime. Bitcoin has fashioned an ascending trendline from its low in early January. Offered BTC can maintain this trendline on a weekly foundation and bounce up from there (at round $28,200), an invalidation would happen. The symmetry of the M can be damaged, the uptrend on the upper time frames may proceed.
