‘Even In A Parabolic Bull Run’ Bitcoin Can See 30% Pullbacks – Top Analyst

Bitcoin has experienced a 7% pullback from its all-time high at $99,800 after failing to break above the psychological $100,000 mark. This retracement, while causing some concern among investors, is seen as a necessary consolidation phase for the cryptocurrency to build strength before continuing its ascent. 

Despite the short-term setback, many fear this may be the peak of Bitcoin’s bullish movement for this cycle. However, top analyst Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant, shared a technical analysis on X highlighting that even during parabolic bull runs, BTC can experience significant pullbacks—sometimes as deep as -30%.

With the market consolidating, the next few weeks will determine whether BTC can reclaim its momentum and eventually break above the $100,000 level or if the price will face further downward pressure. Investors remain watchful, balancing caution with optimism as BTC works through its latest phase of price action.

Bitcoin Bull Run Is Only Starting

Bitcoin’s parabolic bull run is just beginning, and the recent aggressive move from $67,500 to $99,800 confirms this bullish phase. While BTC has seen impressive gains, top analyst and CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju shared a technical analysis on X, suggesting that despite a parabolic bull run, BTC can experience significant pullbacks of up to 30%. 

This pattern has been seen repeatedly, such as during Bitcoin’s 2021 price discovery from $17,000 to $64,000, where sharp corrections did not derail the upward trajectory.

This analysis doesn’t signal an imminent correction but highlights the importance of managing risk. Investors need to avoid panic selling during local bottoms, as such corrections are part of Bitcoin’s price discovery process and serve to shake out weak hands. As long as BTC continues to establish higher highs and maintain its overall bullish trend, corrections can be seen as opportunities rather than reasons to exit the market.

With this context in mind, optimistic investors view Bitcoin’s ongoing rise as the beginning of an extended bullish period. Many believe that BTC will continue its ascent, with altcoins likely following. The coming months hold significant potential for BTC and the broader cryptocurrency market as long as investors remain patient and resilient during inevitable price corrections.

Testing Liquidity Above $90K

Bitcoin is currently trading at $92,100 after testing crucial liquidity levels that could act as price demand zones. This consolidation around these levels suggests there is still potential for Bitcoin to hold steady and continue its bullish trend toward breaking the $100,000 mark. However, if BTC fails to maintain support above the $90,000 level, it could signal further correction, weakening the bullish structure and pushing the price lower.

The last strong level of demand to watch would be the $88,500 mark, as a drop below this price could lead to a deeper pullback. Losing this level would shift the liquidity range, potentially altering Bitcoin’s price trajectory for the coming weeks. This could result in further consolidation or a more significant retracement, which may limit the upside potential in the short term.

For the bulls to maintain control, it is critical that BTC holds the $90,000 level and avoids dropping to the $88,500 zone. If demand remains strong at these levels, BTC could resume its upward momentum, pushing toward new highs and possibly the long-awaited $100,000 breakout.
