In a new video, analyst Kevin Swenson told 78,700 YouTube subscribers that #bitcoin appears to be repeating the price movements of 2017, when #BTC experienced three parabolic markets before the bull market ended.
There were several phases of parabolic trending in 2017: short-term parabolic trends transitioned into larger trends, and then back into larger trends. Finally, there was a major vertical breakout.
Now, in 2024, we are in the same position. There's no reason why we shouldn't be in that position. We just need to regain a sense of #optimism and build momentum.
Swenson says technical indicators suggest that BTC's momentum is starting to shift to the bulls. Looking at the Bitcoin Relative Strength Index (RSI), an indicator of momentum, Swenson says the indicator has found support at the level where BTC began its second parabolic phase of this cycle.
In other words, this could be a continuation of the trend. Swenson also says that the divergence in bitcoin's trend indicator, the moving average convergence (MACD), suggests that the BTC bulls are regaining control of the market. If this is true, then when the weekly MACD histogram reverses, prices usually rise at a phenomenal rate.
