Bitcoin (BTCUSD) has been basically trading sideways for the past 6 months following the massive surge at the start of the year due to the introduction of the BTC ETF. There might be no better way to illustrate this 6-month ranged trend than the current chart on the 1W time-frame.
** Buy-Hold-Sell Zone ** On this chart we depict BTC's Cycles in terms of Zones of BUY-HOLD-SELL. As you can see the first two Cycles placed their previous tops just above the 0.618 Fibonacci level, while the most recent one just below the 0.382 Fib.
** When to Buy ** We've found that the 1.0 - 0.786 (Green) Fib Zone is usually the best Zone to Buy, despite the FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt) investors may have at the time due to the concluding Bear Cycle. All these emotions are normal to have under those circumstances but it's those that traders need to filter out and make the cold decision to buy.
** When to do nothing ** The 0.618 - 0.382 (Blue) Fib Zone is where investors are encouraged to do nothing and just Hold BTC, despite the temptation to sell and take profits after the first strong rallies of the new Bull Cycle or at times when volatility hits the market and disbelief of Bull Cycle continuation makes its presence.
** When to Sell ** The 0.236 - 0.0 (Red) Fib Zone is the best Zone to Sell, even if successive rallies hit euphoria to very high levels making investors expect/ hope that the Bull Cycle will continue to higher and higher levels.
** So where are we now? ** So assuming that the current Cycle will have the previous top just below its 0.382 Fib (such as the previous Bull Cycle 2019 - 2021), we can clearly see the potential Zones of Action.
The 1.0 - 0.786 Fib Zone (Buy) was from the moment of the 15.5k Bear Cycle bottom until Bitcoin roughly broke above the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) again. Then it flashed its Buy Signal every time the March - October 2023 consolidation bottomed and pierced through the 0.786 Fib.
It becomes also obvious that the recent 6-month consolidation (March 2024 - now) we talked at the start is nothing but the usual cyclical Hold Action (0.618 - 0.382 Fib) for Bitcoin. In fact, as you can see, this sideways trading has been taking place at the upper level of the Hold Zone within the 0.5 - 0.382 Fib.
** Start selling at 100k? ** With the 1W MA50 tested again last week (2nd time since the first week of August) and so far holding, the market is making a case that we are in cyclical terms on the 'No-Action' region of the Cycle, and most likely shouldn't sell despite the disbelief and fear that the recent 6-month ranged trend may have caused. The time to start selling, if the model is materialized, will be at exactly 100k (0.236 Fib) and potentially lasting up to just below the 200k mark (0.0 Fib).
But what do you think? Do you like this Buy-Hold-Sell Zone classification? Are you expecting this model to repeat the cyclical activity of past Cycles and if so, will you start selling at 100k? Feel free to let us know in the comments section below!
