Analysts Predict Significant Bitcoin Price Increase.

Bitcoin's volatility has shown an unprecedented level of compression. This situation has led analysts to potentially foresee a significant price increase for BTC up to $190,000. Julien Bittel, the macro research director at Global Macro Investor, highlighted this in a post on X on July 19, indicating that the Bollinger Bands, a significant volatility indicator for Bitcoin, are extremely narrow. Historically, such compression occurs before significant price increases.

Bollinger Bands at Tight Levels for Bitcoin.

The Bollinger Bands, which measure

volatility and trend strength, are

currently at a rare tight level on the

weekly BTC/USD chart. Bittel noted that

such compression has only been seen

twice before, in April 2016 and July

2023: In both instances, Bitcoin's price experienced significant increases in the following twelve months. This suggests

that a similar outcome could be expected now. If these patterns hold, the potential target range for Bitcoin is between $140,000 and $190,000.

In late 2023, a similar compression was observed just before the launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States, which led to price increases at that time. Bittel's current analysis strengthens his previous predictions, which called for patience during the deepest price drops of the bull market and indicated a significant rise ahead.

September 2024 Could Be Crucial for Bitcoin.

As of July 19, Bitcoin's price was around

$64,000, an 11% increase from the

previous week. While this upward movement has renewed confidence

among investors, some doubts persist

due to the absence of mainstream

individual investor interest, a typical

feature of previous bull markets. Instead,

institutional investors and large-scale

holders, known as whales, are leading

the current accumulation phase.

On the other hand, September 2024 is seen as a crucial period for Bitcoin's price trajectory.
