Bitcoin Is Playing Out The ‘Fakeout Theory’ Again, Here’s What To Expect

A crypto analyst known as "Bee" proposes that Bitcoin is repeating a historical four-year "fakeout" pattern, where a cycle's all-time high later becomes a key support level. According to this theory, after hitting a peak near $126,000 in October 2025 and subsequently crashing below $70,000 in early 2026, Bitcoin could see a further correction. The analyst projects a potential drop first to the $60,000-$65,000 range, followed by a final cycle bottom between $47,000 and $52,000. Following this reset, the pattern suggests a major bull run could commence, potentially driving Bitcoin's price above $110,000, representing a gain of over 120% from the projected low. However, the analyst expresses skepticism about the theory's validity in the current strained market environment.

Bitcoin Is Setting Up A Similar Structure To 2017 & 2021, What Happened Last Time?

Bitcoin's recent climb back above $80,000 is drawing comparisons to patterns seen in 2017 and 2021, according to analyst Merlijn The Trader. In those previous cycles, Bitcoin briefly broke below key support—a "fakeout" that stopped out traders—only to quickly recover and then rally to new all-time highs. The current structure suggests a similar scenario may be unfolding, where a sharp drop below support (potentially under $60,000) could shake out weak holders before a swift recovery. The $80,000 level is now a critical technical juncture. A sustained move above $82,000 would support the bullish case, while a break below $78,000 could signal a bearish shift. However, the analyst's overall outlook remains bullish, projecting that if Bitcoin follows the historical playbook, this setup could eventually lead to a parabolic move toward a new peak above $242,000. As of now, Bitcoin is trading around $80,790.

Is Bitcoin’s dip below $70K the latest fakeout before its next move higher?

Bitcoin's recent dip below $70,000 may be a sign of impending decline, but key indicators suggest it could be a bear trap before a potential upward move. Unlike bear markets, current derivatives data shows no significant long liquidations, indicating traders are not panicking but repositioning. On-chain activity supports this: a new wallet withdrew $179 million worth of BTC from Binance, signaling fresh capital inflow, while short-term holder inflows to exchanges have dropped sharply from 100,000 BTC in early February to just 25,000 BTC. This suggests growing confidence and market stability, making the current pullback a likely fakeout to shake out weak hands before a bullish continuation.

MYX Finance back above $3 after a fakeout – Can it reclaim THIS?

MYX Finance (MYX) surged 12% in 24 hours, reclaiming the $3.30 level after a recent fakeout. Earlier, a false breakout to $3.90 was followed by a sharp drop to $2.90, trapping bullish traders. Despite a 9.78% weekly loss, the daily chart structure remains bullish. The 4-hour chart shows a bullish break above $3.10, leaving a demand zone between $2.93–$3.18. Technical indicators like CMF and MACD suggest growing bullish momentum. However, bearish market sentiment and Bitcoin’s struggle below $94.5k may limit gains. Traders are advised to consider buying near the $2.93–$3.18 zone, targeting $4.40, with invalidation below $2.93.
