Pseudonymous market analyst CoinNiel has shared potential insights on Bitcoin’s future using inferences from a combination of market cycle signals. The premier cryptocurrency presently trades around $69,000 after successfully retesting the $70,000 resistance for the third time in February. Bitcoin appears to be undergoing consolidation following the aggressive sell-off seen in late January/early February, where prices dipped as low as $60,000.

In a QuickTake post on February 14, CoinNiel draws similarities between the present market cycle and the third halving cycle by analyzing metrics such as distribution, capitulation, and accumulation. Notably, the on-chain expert highlights that the Distribution Signal, which measures smart money selling activity, is presently heading downwards. While this may appear as initially bullish behavior due to a reduction in selling pressure, it is also indicative of a fragile market phase marked by diminished participation by large market holders. According to CoinNiel, this gradual decline in the Distribution Signal can also be observed in the third halving cycle following a double top formation. Furthermore, Bitcoin’s price kept falling during this cycle alongside a rise in the Capitulation Signal (which tracks panic-selling behavior) and Accumulation Signal (which tracks buying activity by smart money).

This suggested that smart money had finished the large-scale absorption from panic sellers, as the market stabilized for a potential reversal. Presently, the Accumulation Signal sits around $54,000 while the price hovers around the $69,000 price point. Going by historical data, the Accumulation Signal is expected to match the price at the cycle low. Therefore, there is still room for growth. CoinNiel predicts that price and Accumulation Signal are likely to cross above $60,000. However, it remains unknown when this intersection will occur. But only after this meeting is Bitcoin market expected to stabilize in preparation for a potential reversal.
