Bitcoin: History suggests BTC will be up and running again after…

• BTC’s price moved marginally in the last 24 hours. 
• Market indicators hinted at a few more slow-moving days. 

Investors might have been worried about the last few days, as Bitcoin’s [BTC] price witnessed multiple corrections.

However, they must not lose hope, as this might just be yet another re-testing phase, which could end with another bull rally. 

What history suggests 

The last week did not witness high volatility in terms of BTC’s price action, as the king of cryptos’ value moved marginally. A similar trend was also noted in the last 24 hours.

According to CoinMarketCap, at the time of writing, BTC was trading at $64,796.66 with a market capitalization of over $1.27 trillion.

However, there were chances for the coin’s price to turn volatile over the days to follow. Moustache, a popular crypto analyst, recently posted a tweet mentioning how BTC was in a “re-testing” phase.

If history is to be considered, BTC might soon begin a bull rally, as the coin turned bullish when its price entered a similar pattern back in 2017 and 2020.

Therefore, AMBCrypto checked Bitcoin’s metrics to see the chances of the coin actually kick-starting a bull rally. 

Metrics look bearish though

Despite a historical bull pattern, Bitcoin’s on-chain metrics continued to look bearish. For example, it’s aSOPR was red, as per our analysis of CryptoQuant’s data.
