‘Time to Pay Attention’: John Bollinger’s Bitcoin Price Outlook Update

As a seasoned crypto investor with over a decade of experience in this wild and unpredictable market, I have learned to take every prediction, analysis, and forecast with a grain of salt. However, when it comes to the Bollinger Bands, I have found their predictive power to be quite impressive.


Recently, there’s been much discussion among Bitcoin (BTC) market participants regarding its future prospects. On July 30th, several key players within the cryptocurrency community voiced their opinions about Bitcoin’s present situation and possible future developments.

In a recent post, Alex Kruger expressed his views on the tough market climate. He posited that as Bitcoin sets new record highs, there might be only a handful of active traders left with funds. Similarly, BTCVIX has also recognized the hardships faced by traders over the past few months.

Meanwhile, he highlighted a significant technical factor: The current week’s Bollinger Bands for Bitcoin are among the tightest on record, implying that substantial price fluctuations for Bitcoin could still occur.

It’s worth noting that John Bollinger, the inventor of Bollinger Bands, endorsed this viewpoint. He expressed that the current market situation is experiencing a significant compression, which could lead to increased volatility in prices.

Bollinger also mentioned that a two-bar reversal pattern at the lower band could be a key factor in future price movements, but he warned about some potential supply at the upper border that could affect Bitcoin.

If we observe a break of this specific level, it suggests that at present, there’s no demand from buyers for Bitcoin (BTC). In terms of the Bollinger Bands model, the value of BTC is moving closer to the lower band, which is currently positioned at $58,422.
