With the year closing in, Bitcoin’s (BTC) price has mostly moved sideways without any major volatility. And, even if things have calmed down in the cryptocurrency market, the fallout from the collapse of FTX is still being felt throughout the industry. Despite this, according to certain technical and historical indications, BTC seems to have a glimmer of hope left; with a possible bullish trend in the first half of 2023.
Bitcoin (BTC) Price Analysis
The Money Flow Index (MFI) for Bitcoin is demonstrating a similar chart pattern compared to the asset’s previous two bottoms, a pseudonymous crypto analyst named Trend Rider noted on December 27. As per historical data, during the earlier two bottoms, the BTC price took an upward trend & the same bullish sentiment is expected to take place in the period of the first five months of 2023.
According to another observation made by Twitter influencer CryptoNoob, the leading cryptocurrency was “trading in the oversold zone,” which is typically the place where the bottom occurs. This suggests that an upward movement is likely to occur in the near future.
