Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez compared the current bullish cycle to those of 2020 and 2017, predicting that if historical patterns hold, the first significant correction (ranging from 15% to 30%) might not occur until Bitcoin reaches $135,000 to $159,000.
Rekt Capital highlighted that past Bitcoin cycles typically experienced major corrections six to seven weeks into price discovery: The 2013 cycle saw six weeks of upside before a correction in week seven, while seven weeks of gains followed by a 34% retrace in week eight in the 2017 cycle. Lastly, there were six weeks of rallying before a 16% pullback in the 2020/2021 cycle.
Rekt Capital noted that Bitcoin is currently in week four, suggesting further upward momentum may occur before a significant correction, based on historical trends.
Meanwhile, The Cryptomist suggested targeting long positions around $82,000–$84,000 if Bitcoin loses its current trend.
