October was the second best-performance month for Bitcoin this year after January. BTC soared 27% to highs over the past year and a half above $34K.
Regarding seasonality, November is considered a moderately successful month for BTC. Over the past 12 years, Bitcoin has ended the month on seven occasions with an average gain of 24%. In cases of decline, the average drop was 17%.
The “Golden Cross” on Bitcoin’s daily timeframes was formed at the end of October thanks to the price rally in the second half of the month. But this event did not trigger further buying. The same was true with the “Death Cross” in September which came the day after the local price bottom.
After crossing the $34K mark, the early phase of the bull market began, according to Look Into Bitcoin. Pointsville founder Gabor Gurbach cited the increased presence of institutionalisation as the main driver of further growth.
