Peter Brandt warns MSTR could face losses if Bitcoin repeats 1977 soybean crash pattern with possible drop to $60K. 🚨
Veteran trader Peter Brandt has warned that Bitcoin’s current chart resembles the 1977 soybean market before it crashed by 50%. He noted that if this pattern repeats, MicroStrategy (MSTR) could face deep losses, given its large exposure to Bitcoin through leveraged holdings. 🌽💥
Peter Brandt Warns of Broadening Top Pattern in Bitcoin
In a recent post on X, Brandt explained that Bitcoin may be forming a broadening top, a pattern similar to the one soybeans formed before a steep decline in 1977. He suggested this setup could trigger a sharp drop in BTC price, possibly testing the $60,000 level. 📉
In 1977 Soybeans formed a broadening top and then declined 50% in valueBitcoin today is forming a similar pattern. A 50% decline in will put underwaterWhether I am right or wrong, you have to admit this old guy has the gonads to make big calls 😂

Brandt stated, “If BTC goes up, I want to be long; if it goes down, I want to be short.” He also emphasized the danger of high-risk trading strategies, warning that aggressive bets could lead to portfolio losses over time. His comments mark a shift from his previously bullish view on Bitcoin’s long-term trend. 🧠
Market Reactions and Analyst Disagreements on BTC Direction
Another market analyst, known as TheMarketSniper, agreed that while Bitcoin’s current pattern may resemble the 1977 setup, the outcomes may not be the same. Brandt responded by acknowledging this point, saying both bullish and bearish scenarios are possible depending on market developments. 🤷♂️
If you have you would notice whilst the broadening structures look the same.The Soybeans was an Ascending Megaphone on a bull trend => BearishBitcoin is a Descending structure on a bull trend, eventually => Bullish.Place a splitter between each for net gradient.…

Just weeks earlier, Brandt had stated that Bitcoin and other top cryptocurrencies, including Ethereum and XRP, remained in a bullish phase. However, he now notes that risks are rising as technical indicators show possible trend exhaustion. 🚧
Brandt’s analysis adds another layer to the ongoing discussion about Bitcoin’s market direction and the impact it may have on publicly traded firms like MicroStrategy. 💸
MSTR Exposure Heightens Risk if Bitcoin Drops Further
MicroStrategy (MSTR), known for holding over 200,000 BTC, could be highly exposed if Bitcoin falls sharply. A 50% price drop would reduce the value of its assets and put pressure on its leveraged balance sheet. 🏗️
Brandt pointed out that technical weakness in Bitcoin may test investor confidence in such high-BTC exposure. If BTC retraces to lower levels, MSTR’s strategy may face stress, especially under volatile market conditions. 🌀
Meanwhile, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao recently reignited the Bitcoin vs. gold debate, predicting Bitcoin could surpass gold’s $30 trillion valuation. However, some market participants are already rotating capital from gold into Bitcoin, especially after gold posted its steepest daily drop since 2013. 🌍
