Legendary Trader John Bollinger Breaks Silence on Bitcoin (BTC) Price Action: Details By U.Today

U.Today – Legendary trader John Bollinger has shared his insights on the current (BTC) price action, offering his analysis of the market’s movements. Known for his creation of the Bollinger Bands, a widely used technical analysis tool, Bollinger’s observations remain valued by the crypto community.

Bollinger observes a W pattern forming on the weekly Bitcoin chart, marking a bullish setup. “Nice little W pattern on the weekly chart. I drew a regression channel to highlight the flag that is forming. Bullish setup, Awaiting confirmation,” the Bollinger band creator wrote in a recent tweet.

A “W” pattern marks a double bottom, often regarded as a bullish signal. A double bottom is formed following a single rounding bottom pattern which can also be the first sign of a potential reversal.

Bollinger mentioned a regression channel — a three-line technical indicator used to analyze the upper and lower limits of an existing trend, implying that he is closely watching Bitcoin’s price as it trades within this channel.

Based on the regression channel, Bollinger observes that Bitcoin might be in the process of forming a bullish flag pattern, a classic continuation pattern that suggests the possibility of an upward breakout after a period of consolidation; for this, he awaits confirmation.
