Bitcoin is currently at crossroads for the adjusted market cycle psychology theory. As we were not able to secure 12K, it seems like the bears have taken control for the short term; however, Bitcoin is argued by many that we may be on to new highs.
Keeping in mind with our incredible recovery from the COVID19 crash, is this merely a bull trap? We have seen a 200%+ return within a short amount of time and we are not too sure if this trend will continue. If Bitcoin is able to keep this recovery rate going, we will need an incredible amount of volume and power not only from large institutions, but the general public on a global scale - but we aren't seeing any evidence for that when we pull up the Google Trends keyword, "Bitcoin." We continuously see smaller bull and bear cycles within on our timeline, which can be a good or bad thing.
With that being said, our continued advice for all traders is to wait for the clear break down or breakout to the upside. For all we know, we may be increasingly on a sideways cycle which may suggest further evidence for the lengthening market cycle theory.
