Peter Brandt is popular in the crypto community. He managed to correctly predict the correction of Bitcoin (BTC) in 2018. Recently, he shared his forecast for the cryptocurrency.
According to the analyst, the currency is expected to fall. Peter Brandt came to these conclusions after analyzing the results of a technical analysis of the Bitcoin chart. In his opinion, cryptocurrency is moving in the figure of the ‘pennant.’
With the pennant figure in mind, his prediction is that Bitcoin may fall. Peter Brandt, with such an ironic statement, drew the attention of the crypto community. “When it looks like a pennant and behaves like a pennant, it’s usually a pennant.”
Pennants on the Bitcoin chart
On the chart, the analyst marked two pennants. The first drop was in May 2022. During this period, the cryptocurrency fell from $38,000 to $30,000.
The first pennant closed closer to mid-June. Bitcoin fell from $30,000 to $17,000, after which it was corrected to $20,000. The second pennant, according to Peter Brandt’s chart, may close in mid-July.
Bitcoin’s average drop in the two episodes reviewed was about 27%. If history repeats itself, BTC could fall to $14,000.
Many members of the crypto community see the potential for BTC to fall to $10,000. At this level, in his opinion, cryptocurrency will find the “bottom.”
