Analyst Notes: Michael Van de Poppe highlights that Bitcoin is currently maintaining a crucial level of support at around $25,500.
However, the upcoming month of September could be a challenging one for cryptocurrency.Bitcoin is currently resting on the 200-Week Moving Average (MA), which is a crucial support level that it should ideally hold onto.By examining the historical and cyclical aspects of the market, we can draw a few conclusions.
In previous years, both August and September have been unfavorable months for Bitcoin, particularly in pre-halving years.For example, in August 2015, there was a considerable correction toward the 200-Exponential Moving Average (EMA), but Bitcoin never closed below it.
Similarly, in August 2019, there was a substantial correction, followed by a smaller one in November of the same year.
