This 90-Year-Old Indicator Says Bitcoin Uptrend Is Just Getting Started

The moment all crypto investors have been waiting for may finally be upon us: Bitcoin is about to enter a new bull market.

And while market participants have been saying it for some time now, this indicator first developed in the 1930s and still popular today points to Bitcoin’s new uptrend only just noq beginning, despite an already over 40% return year-to-date.

90-Year-Old Technical Analysis Indicator Signals Buy on Weekly Timeframes

Using technical analysis to chart across multiple timeframes is common practice for all types of traders, crypto, Bitcoin, or otherwise.

Lower timeframes are often paid the closest attention, as these dictate intraday price movements that the cryptocurrency community prefers to speculate over and makes for quick scalp trades.

But it’s the highest timeframes – daily, weekly, and monthly – that typically dictate the underlying strength of an asset and any trend direction.

A 90-year-old, Japanese technical analysis indicator is signaling that Bitcoin’s new uptrend is just getting started, according to an impending cross of the two Senkou spans.

In the chart below, the Senkou span A (in blue) and the Senkou span B (in red) lines on the Ichimoku indicator, are making a cross that signals an uptrend is starting.

The last time this happened was in May of 2019 while Bitcoin was trading below $6,000. After the cross occurred, the leading cryptocurrency by market cap exploded upward by over another 130%.

Another 130% surge from current levels, would put Bitcoin at a new all-time high near $23,000.

In addition, price has broken into the Kumo on the indicator. Any break above it will further confirm a new uptrend.

Backing Up the Ichimoku Indicator Claims Of A New Bitcoin Bull Market

The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo is a technical analysis indicator designed in the 1930s by journalist Goichi Hosoda.

The journalist’s nickname was Ichimoku Sanjin, which translates to “what a man in the mountain sees.” This man in the mountain aptly named certain aspects of the indicator after what someone in his position would see, such as the Kumo, or cloud.

The indicator was created to provide a graphic environment that offers analysts an “at a glance” look at all aspects of a market, including support, resistance, momentum, time, and more.

While there are a number of ways to use the indicator, the most common way is watching for a cross of the two Senkou span lines. Others include a twist in the cloud and more.

The indicator is widely used today, despite almost being nearly 100 years old.

Those that aren’t comfortable with such a tool, may feel more comfortable with more common technical analysis practices confirming a new uptrend in Bitcoin.

Even just drawing trend lines on weekly timeframes confirms that a breakout has occurred and that the strongest level of resistance has been flipped back into support. This also suggests that the latest pullback across the crypto space is may simply be a retest and confirmation of this resistance turned support.

If that happens, Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto market will enter an uptrend like the Ichimoku indicator suggests, and will likely bring about a new all-time high in the months ahead.

I'm Tony Spilotro. Behind the pseudonym, I'm a digital media executive and global remote work leader with a decade of content experience and excellent. Here, I explore my newfound passions pertaining to privacy, finance, economics, politics, cryptography, property rights, and other libertarian-esque views. I am a Bitcoin evangelist, maximalist, and educator whenever I can be, helping to spread its message of freedom from government control, monetary policy mismanagement, and passing the buck - literally – to future generations. My journey from a curious retail crypto investor to a serious Bitcoin advocate, trader, and technical analyst is an unusual one, but life-changing nonetheless and has become less about money and more about a long-overdue revolution. While a firm believer in the laws governing math and science, I am profoundly fascinated by the impact of astrology and astronomy including moon and solar cycles and planetary alignment and their ability to influence and potentially predict markets. It hasn't yet clicked for me as to how to put anything to use, but I consider it my current rabbit hole I can't yet dig out of. My perspective of growing up alongside the internet, the dot com era, the Great Recession, and roots in video games collecting coins and rare items caused Bitcoin to immediately make sense to me. Through all of these lenses, I seek to produce content that is educational and entertaining, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read what I have to say. Please follow me on Twitter and feel free to drop me a line if you would like to work together.
