    Could Bitcoin’s Longest Consolidation Lead to a New All-Time High?

    Story Highlights
    • Bitcoin is in its longest consolidation phase since March, sparking uncertainty about its next move.

    • Expert opinions suggest a potential bullish continuation based on Wyckoff accumulation and broader market strength.

    • A break below the $50,749 level could signal a macro distribution, indicating a potential end to the bull market.

    Bitcoin has entered its longest consolidation phase since March, fueling speculation over its next move — up or down. Experts are highlighting the Wyckoff accumulation phase and broader market resilience as potential signals for a bullish breakout.

    Here’s what you need to know.

    Consolidation Period for Bitcoin – Again?!

    On March 13, Bitcoin surged to an all-time high of $73,000. Since then, it has been trading between $73,000 and $53,944, marking its longest period of consolidation this year. Such extended consolidation often hints at a big move ahead, whether it’s a breakout or breakdown.

    The $50,749 price level is crucial for Bitcoin. This level represents the lowest point of an order block from February that helped drive Bitcoin to its all-time high. If Bitcoin drops below $50,749, it may indicate a “macro distribution” instead of accumulation — a sign that the bull market might be ending.

    Expert Insights: Limited Downside Risks?

    Crypto expert Crypto Banter argues that a significant downside for Bitcoin is unlikely, citing expected strength in traditional markets like the Nasdaq and S&P 500. According to Banter, a stable stock market could support Bitcoin and prevent a bearish breakdown.

    Currently, Bitcoin sits in the BU/LPS zone of Wyckoff’s Phase D. To reach the ‘Sign of Strength’ (SOS) zone, a bit more upward momentum is needed. A brief consolidation could allow for this next push, moving Bitcoin into Phase E — often a highly bullish phase.

    Buying Opportunity: How to Approach Pullbacks

    In a bullish market, price dips can present buying opportunities. A pullback to around $65,860 could offer a strategic entry point, with potential to reach the range high of $69,017. If momentum continues, Bitcoin may even target $80,000 in a strong rally.

    In conclusion, while Bitcoin’s next big move remains uncertain, current patterns hint at a potential buying opportunity for those confident in the bull market’s continuation. Given the current market setup and expert insights, many traders are watching for signs of strength that could signal a breakout. As a result, this consolidation phase could be pivotal in shaping the next Bitcoin price prediction, with the potential to rally if bullish indicators prevail.
