The price of Bitcoin (BTC) has seen a recent dip after reaching a record high above $126,000. Analysts speculate about its future trajectory, suggesting significant volatility may occur in the upcoming 100 days.

Potential for a Major Move

Bitcoin’s weekly Bollinger Bands indicate a significant shift in price could emerge. Analyst Tony “The Bull” Severino notes that these bands have tightened, hinting at a potential breakout or breakdown soon:

“Whatever direction is chosen will lead to a trending move accompanied by high volatility.”

Severino cautions, however, that this setup may tempt investors into ‘head fakes’, where price movements can briefly mislead before either surging or declining.

“This has the potential to send Bitcoin parabolic, or end the three-year mature bull rally.”

Possible Outcomes

Most analysts remain hopeful that Bitcoin still has room for growth. For instance, Friedrich and another analyst predict a rise to $150,000 within the next few months. They believe that increased investment inflows into Bitcoin ETFs and diminishing exchange reserves support this bullish perspective.

Conversely, there’s chatter about a more dire outcome. Analyst Ali Martinez warns that Bitcoin could retract significantly if it fails to sustain above $124,000, predicting potential drops to $96,000 and even $70,000.
