Bitcoin Death Cross 2022: o que debes saber sobre o sinal mortal

All across crypto, fear is in the air. Not only is the market shaken from the recent downtrend, but there’s an extra layer of doom and gloom due to an impending “death cross” in Bitcoin.

Learn all about the ominous sounding crossover of two commonly watched moving averages, what the signal could mean, and how Bitcoin price has reacted in the past.

Bitcoin price on daily BTCUSD charts is only days away from completing a “death cross.” According to Investopedia, “a death cross is a technical chart pattern indicating the potential for a major sell-off.” It occurs when a short-term moving average (in this case the 50-day MA) crosses below a long-term moving average (the 200-day MA).

The signal tells investors that the asset’s growth has slowed and is showing potential of a bear trend. Long-term price depreciation is possible. However, in Bitcoin, things don’t always behave the way they should.

Ao longo de oito cruces de morte na primeira moeda criptográfica da historia, a caída media nun mes desde a cruz é de só un 25% (h/t Dan a través de TonyTradesBTC), algo insignificante para os estándares criptográficos.

The opposite signal, golden crosses, also don’t always have a positive impact, either. In fact, Bitcoin price is lower now today than it was when the last golden cross triggered.

Tales cruces adoitan usarse para confundir o mercado durante as fases de consolidación. Antes da explosión dos touros de 2020, houbo dúas cruces de morte e dúas cruces de ouro. Un cruce de morte notable en outubro de 2019 provocou un bombeo do 42 % o sinal do día anterior.

A pesar da forza, a acción dos prezos foi rexeitada de novo a novos mínimos, só a cruz de ouro, cruz da morte e despois cruz de ouro de novo. Antes da fábula corrida de touros 2016-2017, tamén houbo unha falsificación similar, representada na caixa verde.

Prior to the 2014-2015 bear market, however, there was a death cross, golden cross, back into a death cross fakeout that closely mimics the situation brewing in Bitcoin right now in the red box.

Another such example could result in a renewed bear phase. But the data otherwise shows that the “death cross” is not a reaper you need to fear.
