2024

Bitcoin

<div class="finbold">
 <p class="paragraph">So far, 2024 has been a strong year for Bitcoin (BTC). While one of the earliest positive developments for the cryptocurrency – the approval of a series of U.S.’ first-ever spot BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs) – led to a brief but significant crypto market downturn, the recovery in the second half of January and February has been nothing short of staggering.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Bitcoin particularly found itself at the center of attention after it entered into a major and ongoing surge on February 26 which, by February 29, saw it rise above $60,000 for the first time since 2021.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">The momentum couldn’t be stopped even by a flash crash to $58,700 as the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) buckled under pressure stemming from a surge of public interest in Bitcoin on February 28.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Ethereum (ETH) has also been offering a significant rise and is, at the time of publication, reaching for a key resistance area of $3,500, and meme coins have also been seeing noteworthy price action as Dogecoin (DOGE), for example, surged approximately 30% in the last 24 hours.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Still, such a rapid surge has some investors worried that a massive correction might be inbound, and one technical analysis (TA) tool in particular hints that such an event might be imminent for the flagship digital asset.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-td-sequential-issues-btc-sell-signal">TD Sequential issues BTC sell signal</h2>
 <p class="paragraph">Early on Thursday, February 29, prominent crypto analyst Ali Martinez took to X to warn that TD Sequential – a technical <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Category Analysis" href="https://thebittimes.com/analysis.html">Analysis</a> tool designed in 1994 by Tom DeMark and intended to identify possible trend reversals using the existing chart patterns – has flashed a strong sell signal on Bitcoin’s 4-hour chart.</p>

  <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

 <p class="paragraph">Martinez also explained that so far, TD Sequential has been accurate in predicting BTC <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="correction" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/correction.html">correction</a>s and that each of the sell signals it has issued since February 15 has not only been accurate but also led to a <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="correction" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/correction.html">correction</a> ranging in magnitude from 1.50% to 4.20%.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">While there is no clear indication of how major Bitcoin’s next likely correction could be, Martinez previously stated that the coin has a strong support level between approximately $54,000 and $56,000, with almost 1 million addresses buying BTC at those prices.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">While Bitcoin might be in for a significant <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="correction" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/correction.html">correction</a> in the near future, its recent performance has been particularly strong, with the cryptocurrency surging as much as 21.92% in the last 7 days of trading from just above $51,000 to its press time price of $62,596.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Additionally, the uptrend is seemingly ongoing as the latest 24 hours saw BTC rise another 3.41%.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Bitcoin has been showing significant strength in the long-term as well and is as much as 165.46% in the green in the last 52 weeks – with its performance from the start of Q3 2023 accounting for much of this rise – and is 42.01% up year-to-date (YTD).</p>
