Like many other markets, Bitcoin<\/a> (BTC) is all about momentum, trends, and patterns. According to analyst Cane Island Crypto<\/a>, a prominent American cryptocurrency investor, there is a relatively high likelihood that this market could see a dreary next three months.<\/p>\n

In a recent tweet, seen below, the investor accentuated that historically, July and August have been “historically bad months” for Bitcoin. Indeed, as seen in the chart below, the two summer months are the only two with a negative total return, whilst months like March, April, and October have positive returns in the hundreds of percent.<\/p>\n

What’s equally as harrowing is that if Bitcoin performs poorly in June, there is a 75% likelihood that the cryptocurrency market will continue to suffer into July. Are the technicals backing a move lower, though?<\/p>\n

#Bitcoin<\/a> through the years.
1) July and August are historically bad months for
$BTC<\/a>
2) However, June's momentum carries into July 75% of the time.
3) If June is negative, the following July has ALWAYS been negative.
