Bitcoin’s Current Correction Level Still Below Average, Says Rekt Capital Crypto Analyst
In Brief
Rekt Capital crypto analyst notes that the current Bitcoin retracement remains relatively mild compared to previous ones in terms of both price drop and duration.
Cryptocurrency analyst Rekt Capital shared a post on social media platform X, noting that since the bear market reached its lowest point in November 2022, Bitcoin has undergone six significant pullbacks.
These encompass a 23% pullback in February 2023 lasting 21 days, a 21% decline in April-May 2023 lasting 63 days, a 22% decrease in July-September 2023 also lasting 63 days, a 21% downturn in January 2024 lasting 14 days, a 23.7% drop in March-April 2024 lasting 49 days, and a 16% decline in May-June 2024 lasting 35 days.
Thus, the current retracement remains relatively mild compared to previous instances in terms of both how much the price has dropped and how long it has persisted.
The analyst’s conclusion highlighted two key insights about retracements in the current cycle. Firstly, as Bitcoin approaches a 20% retracement, the opportunity tends to improve. Secondly, longer retracements exceeding 40 days present even better opportunities for potential gains.
