Bitcoin Data Tips ‘Cross Death’ at 43% Fall in Bitcoin Bear Price Market

Bitcoin (BTC) could fall more than 40% from last week’s low, according to new data, as analysts address what it sees as a bear market.

The cross-death target price for BTC is now $ 22,700

There has been a lot of debate about structures called the “Death Cross” on the bitcoin chart. This is the crossing of the 50-day moving average (50MA) that falls below that of 200 days (200 MA).

In the past, such an event has often led to a significant drop in prices, which in turn marks what Rekt Capital calls “knee lows”.

“Correction depth in $ BTC before the Cross of Death is often similar to the depth of the variable after the Cross of Death,” he summarizes.

However, March 2020 and May 2021 broke the rules on post-mortem cross-losses – in both cases, the death cross itself was marked at the bottom.

In January 2022, the historical trend seemed to return, as a ‘Death Cross’ type event occurred when the BTC / USD pair was already down 43% from record highs of $ 69,000. November 2021.

However, a further 43% withdrawal from that puts the pair at $ 22,700.
