Bitcoin Descending Triangle Formation Says A Crash Is Coming, How Low Can It Go?


Este artículo también está disponible en español.

A crypto analyst has just confirmed an impending Bitcoin (BTC) crash, pointing to the formation of a bearish descending triangle formation on the cryptocurrency’s price chart. With Bitcoin’s price holding strong above the $60,000 mark, the key question now is how low this anticipated downturn is. 

Analyst Confirms Incoming Bitcoin Crash

TradingView crypto analyst, Alan Santana has published a report warning of potential risks in Bitcoin’s current price behavior, pointing to a possible price crash driven by the formation of a new descending triangle. Santana noted that currently, the price of Bitcoin is trading above $60,000, which is about 20% lower than its March 2024 All-Time High (ATH) of more than $73,000. 

The analyst hypothesized that if Bitcoin were trading at a lower price level of $37,000, this would represent a 50% decline from its March ATH. In such a case, this price would be seen as a strong correction from all-time highs

Santana also revealed that trading at $37,000 would be advantageous for Bitcoin, especially before a major political event like the upcoming United States (US) Presidential elections in November. This means that by trading below $40,000 or $37,000, Bitcoin would be due for a significant recovery to new highs

However, since BTC is currently trading at $63,635, a price mark close to a critical resistance level, this indicates a strong momentum. As such, if an unexpected event or market shakeout occurs, it could potentially trigger a massive price decline for the cryptocurrency

Moreover, Bitcoin has formed a descending triangle pattern, which the analyst has flagged as a bearish signal. He revealed that on the cryptocurrency’s monthly chart, this pattern broke to the downside, ultimately confirming an impending price crash

As a result, Santana has warned that investors should expect a Bitcoin crash, citing the cryptocurrency’s prolonged sideways movement with a bearish bias over the past six months. He further disclosed that BTC has been printing lower highs in the short-term and mid-term for more than six months, highlighting that lower highs were an indication of a bearish trend. 

Based on the cryptocurrency’s market behavior, descending triangle pattern and current price, Santana has predicted that Bitcoin could dip below $49,000. He noted that the next Fibonacci retracement level below $49,000 sits around $40,000 to $43,000, meaning the main target for this bearish forecast could be even lower. 

BTC Uptrend Hinges On $70,000 Breakout

While emphasizing the potential for Bitcoin to crash below $49,000, Santana also disclosed that Bitcoin could witness a major uptrend if its price can successfully break above the $70,000 mark. He revealed that a strong confirmation above this price is necessary to consider BTC bullish this cycle. 

Specifically, if the cryptocurrency can achieve a one or two weekly or monthly close above $70,000, it could spark a bullish turnaround for the market. However, while Bitcoin is rising and maintaining a price above $60,000, the market is only seeing over-leveraged traders being liquidated and the growth of altcoins.
