He shared his analysis through the following tweet, where he compares the current Bitcoin environment to past periods of similar BTC decline in 2018 and 2019.

Bitcoin Has 3 More Hurdles in April

From the tweet, it can be observed that Mr. Brandt hints at the possibility of Bitcoin undergoing a few more days of selling to meet the average of 19 days. To be precise, Bitcoin has seven more rough days ahead.

In addition, a 35% decline from the recent all-time high of $64,854, translates to Bitcoin potentially printing a bottom at the $42k support area.

The latter price target does not seem impossible given that Bitcoin has the following 3 hurdles left in the month of April.

  1. Today’s weekly close with $50k and $47k acting as resistance and support respectively
  2. The monthly close on Friday, April 30th
  3. The expiration of Bitcoin options and futures contracts on the same Friday, April 30th
