October has historically been one of the strongest months for Bitcoin (BTC), but one trader argues that it’s a mistake to put too much emphasis on the entire month. “I think it’s a mistake to focus on broader time frames rather than just one month,” Oliver Velez wrote in an Oct. 2 X post. The average October return is 20.65%. However, Velez emphasized that while October is often referred to as “Uptober,” major bullish trends usually start in the second half of the month. Timothy Peterson shared a similar view, saying, “Most of Uptober starts after the 19th. Be patient.” Bitcoin and Ether (ETH) prices are down 5.6% and 11.4%, respectively, since Oct. 1. Bitcoin is currently trading at $60,113. Velez believes that October’s slow start could set the stage for a stronger market push later in the month. Pseudonymous trader Titan of Crypto noted that September was generally marked by negative returns, but this year has performed better than expected. How do you think Bitcoin will perform in October?
