Bitcoin (BTC) began the month with the deepest retrace of the cycle, falling to the $56,000 support level. The retrace raised alarms for some crypto investors and market watchers, who feared the bull run had ended.
Since then, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has recovered crucial levels, and analysts have identified bullish patterns on BTC’s chart, suggesting that it might finally be out of the woods.
Is Bitcoin Out Of Danger?As the May 1st retrace developed, crypto analyst Rekt Capital highlighted the similarities between Bitcoin’s 2016 and 2024 post-halving performances. He suggested that the flagship cryptocurrency’s price development came “as no surprise,” as it was mirroring the “post-Halving Bitcoin Danger Zone” of 2016.
Per the analyst, the “Danger Zone” is officially over, which BTC is “celebrating with a good bounce from the Re-Accumulation Range Low support.” He stated that May could be an “unremarkable” month for the largest cryptocurrency, potentially continuing next month. However, Bitcoin is “running out of unremarkable months” before the beginning of this cycle’s “Parabolic Phase.”
Additionally, Rekt Capital considers that BTC’s sell-side momentum is starting to show signs of slowing down, “slowly developing a curl against the $60,000 support.” Per the post, Bitcoin must continue to hold this support zone for the curl to “progress and eventually lift up.”
Similarly, analyst Bluntz identified a bullish engulfing pattern on Thursday, considering there would be “a solid engulfing on the daily close.” To the analyst, it appeared that the “next push-up into ATH has started.”
This morning, Bluntz confirmed the pattern formation and announced to his followers that this cycle’s Round 2 began, which would lead to a “fresh ATH.”
BTC’s Strength Could Lead The Price To 6-FiguresFollowing the bullish analysis, CryptoJelle stated that BTC “is looking good.” Per his post, the cryptocurrency “has nearly completed a full reset,” as it’s back to the 100-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA).
Additionally, the chart displays a “bullish MACD cross” below the zero line and the “first higher low in a long time,” suggesting a positive divergence.
Jelle highlights that BTC’s price is again pushing into the trendline that “has pushed prices lower over the past weeks.” Despite the higher low, he points out the necessity of reclaiming the $63,000 support zone before new highs come.
For these new highs, he set an $82,000 target for BTC’s price, suggesting that a 6-figure price for the flagship cryptocurrency is possible during this cycle.
#Bitcoin is pushing into the trendline that has pushed prices lower over the past weeks — once again.
Looks like a higher low has been put in, but we still need to break $63,000 convincingly.
Chop city until that happens.

The analyst emphasizes Bitcoin’s performance this cycle, stating that the community has under-appreciated its strength during this bull run. He considers that the run is not over, as the “Halving” event occurred just a few weeks ago, and BTC’s price has been consolidating around the previous cycle’s all-time high for a long period.
On Monday, Bitcoin surged to $63,000 after hovering between $60,000 and $61,000 for the past few days. Despite its recent performance showing short-term red numbers, BTC’s price still registered a 25.7% and 76.5% increase in the three-month and six-month periods, respectively.
At the time of writing, BTC is trading at $62,752, a 3% increase in the past 24 hours.
