What a week it’s been for Bitcoin (BTC). In the past 72 hours, the asset has rallied from the low-$6,000s to $7,500<\/a>, then to $6,900 (current), driven by a newfound sense of hype, passion, and belief in the cryptocurrency cause.<\/p>\n

However, as the market has cooled \u2014 temporarily at least \u2014 analysts have begun to get more level-headed, doing their utmost to figure out where cryptocurrencies could head next. This time for pondering has led to some staggering revelations.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin May See Retracement<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Popular trader Josh Rager recently suggested that there are amazing similarities between 2015’s recovery out of a bear market.<\/p>\n

During that cycle, BTC bottomed around $200, accumulated around $300 for months, went parabolic to tap $500, then saw a pullback. What’s more, the three-day Super Guppy, a key long-term trend indicator, didn’t signal a “buy” (green) until after the pullback.<\/p>\n

Sound familiar? Well, that’s because Bitcoin is seemingly doing effectively the exact same thing, but in a different price region. If history is followed to a tee, Bitcoin may fall a further ~20% from current levels, and may then begin the second phase of accumulation, which will last up to seven months. From there, BTC should begin to rally parabolic into the block reward halving event, setting the stage for the next fully-fledged bull run.<\/p>\n

$BTC<\/a> The last parabola that broke us out of a bear market resulted in a near 7 month consolidation. With alts at their ATL supports against USD, if this sort of consolidation happens again on BTC after it tops (likely), we could be in for the REAL #altseason<\/a>. pic.twitter.com\/c3WwncLyda<\/a><\/p>\n
