A well-known crypto analyst believes that a short-term price pullback for Bitcoin could ultimately strengthen its ongoing bull market.
In a recent video update, the analyst known as Rekt Capital discussed the Pi Cycle Top Indicator, a tool that uses two specific moving averages to predict Bitcoin’s market cycle peaks.
According to Rekt Capital, Bitcoin’s rapid price gains in recent months have caused the indicator’s 111-Day Moving Average to approach a crossover with the 350 DMA X2. Such a crossover typically signals a bearish cycle top.
The analyst explained that a correction in Bitcoin’s price over the next few weeks could help stabilize the market and extend the bull run, potentially raising the eventual peak price. They noted that the market’s current pace might be slightly ahead of schedule, estimating that mid-July could represent the earliest timeframe for a bull market peak.
However, Rekt Capital cautioned that the rally appears overextended for now, making a short-term pullback likely. Historical patterns suggest that this kind of correction could delay a bearish crossover of the moving averages, allowing for continued growth in the long run.
