Bitcoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>) can dip much lower and still preserve its bull market and historical track record.
That is according to the latest BTC price analysis, which paints an optimistic picture of how BTC/USD is performing <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-shorts-normal-sub-66k-btc-price-dip">despite a 10% dip in 24 hours</a>.
<h2 data-ct-non-breakable="true" id="btc-price-bull-market-pullbacks-often-near-40">BTC price bull market pullbacks often near 40%</h2>
Bitcoin is still following the classic road to new macro highs, longtime market participants agree.
Despite increased BTC price volatility around the site of its 2021 all-time highs at $69,000, the current Bitcoin bull run remains wholly intact.
This would remain the case even if a much deeper correction were to occur from current levels near $68,000, per data from <a href="https://subscription.cointelegraph.com/">Cointelegraph Markets Pro</a> and <a href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCGBP/?exchange=BINANCE" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">TradingView</a>.

In <a href="https://twitter.com/0xbags/status/1768585077120745787" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">comments</a> on X on March 15, the pseudonymous trader known as Bags focused on the upcoming <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-halving-different-this-time">block subsidy halving</a>.
He drew comparisons to previous halving cycles, all of which saw major price pullbacks of nearly 40% before the event, flipping into price discovery later on.
“Currently -38% off of $73.5k = $45.5K,” he wrote, calculating the potential scope of downside from Bitcoin’s latest all-time highs.
When challenged about inflows from the United States spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) buoying the market in a way that was absent in previous cycles, Bags noted that each previous bull market had its own catalysts, which nonetheless failed to prevent a drawdown.

Despite Bitcoin hitting a new all-time high before its 2024 halving — a unique event — he suggests that the timing remains a case of classic bull market posturing.
In a chart uploaded to X, he compared this year with behavior during the last halving year in 2020.
“Technically, Bitcoin is still in its Pre-Halving Rally phase (light blue),” he <a href="https://twitter.com/rektcapital/status/1768591740754186429/photo/1" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">explained</a>.

 “However, Bitcoin is on the cusp of transitioning from its ‘Pre-Halving Rally’ phase into the ‘Pre-Halving Retrace’ phase (orange &amp; dark blue circle).”

A further post <a href="https://twitter.com/rektcapital/status/1768573852647358802" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">warned</a> that BTC/USD was about to enter the riskiest part of the pre-halving phase, which he termed the “danger zone.”
“Historically, Bitcoin has performed Pre-Halving Retraces 14-28 days before the Halving,” he noted.
