In the case of Bitcoin, Bitcoin’s price movements in the current bull markethave been highlighted by a close mirror of previous cycles. According to technical analysis, the leading cryptocurrency has been playing out in a 56-day cycle for most of the current market cycle. This 56-day cycle was spotlighted by Bitcoin’s break over various price levels until it broke above the six-digit threshold at $100,000.

After breaking above $100,000, Bitcoin seemed to stumble at first but eventually regained a bit of momentum to reach an all-time high of $108,135 on December 17. Since then, however, Bitcoin has entered a correction phase, even falling as low as $92,800 just three days after reaching this all-time high.

As pointed out by crypto analyst Bob Loukas, this massive correction and consolidation in the past two weeks have prompted Bitcoin to move into a 60-day cycle. This change in cycle, although just by a few days, could have profound effects, and it remains to be seen how the market reacts. Source: X Was The Recent Decline Enough For A Reset?

A move to a 60-day cycle suggests a subtle but meaningful change in Bitcoin’s market behavior. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is about to start a new cycle count that will play out in the next 60 days. Two possible scenarios could play out from here over those 60 days.  Related Reading Weekly Chart Shows That Dogecoin Price Is Primed To Cross $11 In 2025, Here’s How 1 day ago

The first scenario is of a bullish momentumif the recent sharp correction may have already reset the cycle. In this case, we could see Bitcoin pushing up to new all-time highs in the next 60 days. 

The second scenario is less optimistic. It opens up the possibility of Bitcoin consolidating and trading within a narrow range for the next two months. 

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $96,146. If Bitcoin successfully transitions to a 60-day cycle and avoids another consolidation, it could pave the way for a recovery above the $100,000 level and bullish momentum throughoutQ1 2025.
