True. I see that most of the people here compare the current price with the ATH. Instead of this they should be comparing it with the lowest point of the year. Changing the perspective will change the way we trade. If you look at it this way then we can realize how much bitcoin is growing over the year.
Expecting the bull run to return soon the price of bitcoin may rise soon.
newbies and novices
imagine the price as the sea level vs the tip of the Alps mountain
at the tip of the alps. only 1 person at the very top took advantage of selling that the max price. just 1
where as EVERYONE can take advantage of the sea level bottom.
EVERYONE can today sell for more than the last 10month low of $5,800
yet the price has not dropped to that level since.
everyone can today take advantage and sell at over $5,801, $5802... and so on. but they are not.
so today the community combined has equally agreed that they wont sell below X which for the last few weeks has been $6k+
now while the cubs and calves play around above $6k we are still on a bull run from $5,800 because the WHOLE market has agreed on that.
ignore the 1 person who decided he wanted to buy at the peak and the 1 seller who decided to sell at the peak.
the entire community is agreeing we are in a bull market above $5,800 and have cubs and calves playing around the $6-$8k area
again using geography analogy
no one measures a sea level by the last tsunami's height. they measure it by the common agreement of what is the normal tide
cubs/calves are the low tide high tide that moves daily, seasonally
bull/bear are the sea level. the long term average of long term period
while typing this. the OP got proved wrong. the price is $6200. so the cubs and calves have still not agreed to play on a $6400 hill top. the cub chased the calve down the hill.
but the bulls are still above $5,800
