2. Cycle Analysis

Looking at the weekly candle chart of BTC, it has now entered a range of oscillation and reversal. Reviewing the previous several oscillation ranges: $28,000-$41,000 (January 2021), $29,000-$41,000 (June 2021 and July 2021), $33,000-$48,000 (February 2022 and March 2022), and $28,000-$32,000 (May 2022), it can be seen that a large amount of buying pressure has accumulated within the price range of $31,000-$43,000. Under the dual effect of profitable users selling at the price levels of $21,000, $19,000, and $17,000 in the past year and users who bought the dip in the last round selling off all their holdings to get out of a difficult situation, it is expected that the top range of this small bull market will be between $40,000 and $45,000. In terms of time, the top range will come in May and June.

The Bitcoin Ahr999 index of 0.9 is above the buying-the-dip level ($21,440) but below the DCA level ($35,000). It is viable to purchase popular coins through DCA. If the index exceeds the DCA level, it may be wise to consider a brief exit.

From the perspective of MVRV Z-Score, the value is 0.69. When the value is greater than 6, it enters the market tops, while a value below 2 indicates that it enters the market bottoms. Currently, the present value exceeds the buying-the-dip range (-0.4-0.1). A short-term exit from the market could be a viable choice if the value reaches 2 (current value: 1.52).
