Bitcoin Golden Cross and Death Cross History

Most of the day traders open a long position after the golden cross just happened or open a short position just after the death cross happened.

Let’s see what happened if you opened a long position on 19 Feb.

The price has dropped around 10% just after the golden cross, which means if anyone opened a long position with 10x or greater leverage will be liquidated on the next day. The market movers (whales) know that most of the people long after a golden cross so they just dumped the market.

You can see the same when a death cross has happened most people will open a short position. The death cross happened in Mid October and the price has seen a massive increment of 22% the next day, which means anyone opened a position with 5x or more was liquidated the next day.

We can see the same pattern on the previous golden cross and death cross.

The golden cross has happened on 21 April 2019 and the price has dropped around 12% the next day, again liquidating the long positions.

The golden cross has happened on 30 March 2018 and the price has moved 10% up in the next 4 days. The price has moved around 45% up within the month following the death cross.

So from the above history of the golden cross and death cross, there is no need for panic of the $1000 drop in price. The drop is for liquidating a lot of long positions. The market has not very high volume and it is easy for a group of people to manipulate the market to some extent and make money.

Conclusion

It’s all about holding the support of $9300-$9400. It’s a strong confluence of support and if Bitcoin breaks it we will see the price below $9000 just in a blink of an eye. However, it looks like a pullback for the golden cross which is a great buying opportunity and also keeps in mind the halving is now two months away.
