The Bitcoin (BTC) market witnessed a slight recovery in the past 24 hours following a rather bearish trading week. After a flash crash to $91,000 on February 3, market analysts continue to speculate if Bitcoin found a local bottom and is finally gearing for an upswing. Interestingly, crypto expert Ali Martinez has shared some market insights that could prove valuable to this discourse.
Here’s The Best Time To Buy Bitcoin – Analyst
In an X post on February 7, Martinez revealed the optimal entry condition for investors looking to acquire Bitcoin at the moment.
Using data from CryptoQuant, the analyst notes that the realized price of all BTC acquired in the past 1-3 months stands at $97,354. This data suggests a <1% market loss for traders considering Bitcoin is currently valued at around $97,000. However, Martinez warns that the most favorable buying positions for BTC have historically come when traders are at a 12% loss. Therefore, the Bitcoin market with a <1% average loss may not present the ideal condition for new entrants as there is still strong potential for further price corrections.
Martinez’s observation suggests Bitcoin is likely far from a local bottom despite recent price slumps. Based on the presented historical data, the next local bottom for BTC would be around $85,600 which would present the ideal accumulation zone for investors aiming for significant profit margins. However, it is worth noting that the presence of new variables such as strong institutional interest and corporate accumulation of BTC marked the spot ETF inflows could prevent the premier cryptocurrency from dipping as low as previous cycles to launch its next bullish swing.
BTC Market Overview
At press time, BTC continues to trade at $97,020 reflecting a 0.75% price gain in the past day. The crypto flagship asset recorded a 2.70% decline in the past week; however, monthly profits remain up by 3.76%.
According to the market prediction site, CoinCodex, investors are presently uncertain with the Fear & Greed Index standing at 44 (fear). However, analysts at Coincodex back Bitcoin to soon rediscover its bullish form despite its ongoing range-bound movement.
Their short-term predictions project BTC to return to $106,613 in five days with the potential to trade as high as $129,434 over the next month. For long-term targets, they forecast a rise to $158,992 in three months. With a market cap of $1.92 trillion, Bitcoin continues to rank as the largest crypto asset with a 60.6% market dominance.
