Analyst: Bitcoin Looks Now As It Did At the Start of 2019’s Rally

According to the trader that predicted Bitcoin’s breakout at the start of 2019, BTC looks structurally similar to the 2018-2019 bear market bottom:

“Can’t believe I didn’t see it before. On the Weekly, classic pattern I call the “Smooth Transfer of Power” A. Bears get weaker as price descends B. Bulls silently buying all along take control C. Re-test of power D. Lift off Compare to the Monthly one, Crypto Winter ’18-’19.”

The trader is saying that should history rhyme, BTC is on the verge of an extended bull run.

Not the Only Signal Predicting Long-Term Bull Run

The formation of Bitcoin’s candles isn’t the only trend that analysts see as a signal of an impending long-term bull run.

As reported by Bitcoinist previously, Bitcoin’s “Super Trend” on the weekly chart just printed a bullish candle for the first time since the start of 2019’s rally. The trader who made this observation first wrote in regards to the chart below:

“The supertrend went green on the weekly. Probably no big deal. It’s not like this indicator has marked major macro bull & bear cycles in the past.”

Also corroborating the expectation of the start of a longer-term bull trend, one analyst noted that three of Bitcoin’s long-term moving averages are moving higher in tandem. According to his analysis, the last time this happened was in 2016, prior to the 2,000% rally that took BTC to $20,000:

“BTC Monthly: One measure of a bull market: Price > 26 Hume MA > 9 Simple MA > 21 Exponential MA Twice prior this has signaled a prolonged bull run. Monthly MA’s are like aircraft carriers, i.e., slow to turn. A reversal at this point is unlikely.”

These trends do not 100% confirm that a bull run is imminent. Though, they do show that technically speaking, Bitcoin is more likely to rally than fall.
