Potential historical rhyme on post-U.S. government shutdowns

According to James Thorne, the Chief Market Strategist at Wellington-Altus, Bitcoin is well-positioned to repeat its price action after the 2019 U.S. government shutdown.

“Bitcoin bottomed on February 7, 2019, at $3300, 13 days after the U.S. government reopened (January 25, 2019). Then rallied from this low, rallies over the next five months to peak near $13,000 on June 26, 2019, 139 days after the shutdown ended. History rhymes,” Thorne noted.

Technical tailwinds

From a technical analysis standpoint, the Bitcoin price has recently retested a crucial support level above $90k. After filling its daily CME gap above $92k, BTC price has signaled a potential rebound ahead.
