FX.co ★ Technical Analysis of BTC/USD for April 2, 2021

Crypto Industry News:

Bitcoin closed the sixth consecutive monthly candle in green for the first time since April 2013. If history repeats itself, a continuation of the bitcoin boom may await us this year.

In April 2013, bitcoin closed at around $ 140 after it saw six more - green monthly candles. While the market receded to less than $ 100 in the next two months, bitcoin surged 700% in the next six months and hit the price above $ 1000 for the first time.

Bitcoin behaved similarly even before the parabolic spike in 2017, when the market saw five consecutive green monthly candles through September. While consolidation took place in September, bitcoin soared to a new all-time record in October and surged from $ 5,000 to nearly $ 20,000 by the end of the year.

Past trends do not guarantee future results, and the history of green candles is somewhat cloudy. Despite Bitcoin releasing five green monthly candles in a row at the end of 2015, BTC collapsed by 20% in the first weeks of 2016 before it entered a state of several months of consolidation.
