Bitcoin’s (BTC) price could be on track to an imminent breakout in September, based on previous post-halving chart patterns, according to popular analyst Rekt Capital.

The analyst wrote in an Aug. 18 X post to his 493,000 followers:“Bitcoin tends to breakout into the Parabolic Phase of the cycle some ~160 days after the Halving.

The macroeconomic outlook is also promising. Specifically, Bitcoin could be set for a breakout thanks to the growing global M2 money supply, according to Jamie Coutts, a chief crypto analyst at Real Vision.

Coutts wrote in an Aug. 13 X post:“Over the past decade, Bitcoin has had a tendency to trough several months before the bottom in global M2. Then it rips, gets way ahead of the move in liquidity, and has a mid-cycle correction.”BTC/M2 money supply. Source: Jamie Coutts

The analyst added that the growing global liquidity from the M2 money supply, combined with the spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), makes for the “perfect setup” for Bitcoin.

Additional tailwinds might also come from Bitcoin ETF inflows, which turned positive for two consecutive days last week, with positive net flows of $35.9 million on Aug. 16, according to Farside Investors data. Bitcoin ETF flow (USD, million). Source: Farside Investors

Bitcoin’s next major price target could be around $86,000 if it manages to break out in September, according to popular crypto analyst Titan of Crypto.

The megaphone technical chart pattern consists of at least two higher highs and two lower lows. It occurs when the market is highly volatile and marks either a macro top or macro bottom.

However, Bitcoin price failed to print a daily close above its current downtrend, which could mean lower lows in the short term, wrote Rekt Capital:“The reality is that Bitcoin is going to keep downtrending until it breaks. But Bitcoin is only one Daily Close above the Downtrend from turning it all around.”BTC/USD 1-day chart, downtrend. Source: Rekt Capital

These “lower lows” might mean a retest of the $54,000 and $50,000 support levels before September. 

Meanwhile, Bitcoin faces significant resistance at $59,500. A potential break above this level would liquidate over $800 million worth of cumulative leveraged short positions across all exchanges, according to Coinglass data.Bitcoin exchange liquidation map. Source: Coinglass

Short Bitcoin liquidations would surpass $1 billion if Bitcoin staged a recovery above $59,900.
