Bitcoin price has just today set a new high for 2020<\/a> and is showing no signs of slowing down. However, as greed reaches extreme levels and ROI is stacking across the board, could the cryptocurrency see a surprise correction?<\/p>\n According to a chart that first debuted around Black Thursday, this latest high will result in a pullback toward former lows, before the final bull market breakout takes place. Will the cryptocurrency market see a strong correction based on this “supercycle” theory chart shared by a reputable Singapore-based crypto fund?<\/p>\n Today, Bitcoin price exploded through resistance at $12,000<\/a> and is trading well above $12,250 at the time of this writing. The entire crypto market is up well over 80% on the year, with Bitcoin right behind at more than 70%.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Google Trends shows that searches for crypto are picking up rapidly, suggesting that interest is returning to the market in a major way. Most Coinbase coins are up over 57%<\/a> over the last month alone, and the crypto fear and greed index has reached levels of extreme greed<\/a>.<\/p>\n Related Reading | Be Fearful: Crypto Market Greed Reaches Second Highest Point In History<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Markets tend to alternate between greed and fear, both reaching extremes before turning around. Some of the world’s best investors and traders advocate taking a contrarian stance for this very reason. Markets tend to reverse in the opposite direction after achieving such a peak in sentiment.<\/p>\n The last time the fear and greed index reached such a high, was back when Bitcoin was trading above current levels, where a rejection at $14,000 took place.<\/p>\n This top sent Bitcoin tumbling back down to the Black Thursday low at $4,000. Prior to that fateful day, the market wasn’t that fearful since the bear market bottom at $3,000.<\/p>\n The bouncing back and forth between extreme fear and greed, also closely matches a price chart first shared following the Black Thursday collapse. Singapore-based QCP Capital shared the chart<\/a> they received from a “professional chartist,” calling for what the firm says is a Bitcoin “supercycle.”<\/p>\n This “supercycle” is a five-wave ABCDE corrective triangle, where price action tightens and tightens until there’s ultimately a breakout an expansion.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The chart does claim that $10,000 would have acted as the second high, or D-wave, before falling to the final E-wave, then taking off into an uptrend. This, of course, didn’t happen, and Bitcoin is trading at over $12,000.<\/p>\nCrypto Market Ready For Bull Run, Or Has Greed Gotten Ahead Of Reality?<\/h2>\n
