Did Bitcoin Bottom At The Golden Ratio?

In Elliott Wave Theory, corrections are available ABC patterns. Taking the Fibonacci retracement instrument to attract from the underside to the highest of the A wave will present a Fibonacci extension goal for the place a C wave correction would possibly finish.

Past Bear Market Bottoms Pinpointed With Golden Accuracy

Shocked by this discovery, we used the identical technique to look at the 2018 bear market. Lo and behold, the goal terminated on the golden ratio but once more. To show this, now we have drawn within the B wave descending triangle, and brought the Fibonacci extension from the underside of the A wave to the highest the place it started. As you may see, this projected the bear market backside completely.

Zooming out additional, may this actually have occurred within the 2015 bear market additionally? Adding yet one more ABC correction, the identical sample matches, albeit not fairly as exactly at the remainder of the evaluation. Still, its correct sufficient the place the golden ratio may clearly be a think about the place Bitcoin finally bottoms.

If the identical is true for the subsequent bull market, very similar to every bear market has repeated, the golden ratio may take Bitcoin to a worth of greater than $161,000 per coin.
