- Bitcoin’s bullish cup and handle pattern signals a potential price rally to $230,000, as noted by analyst Gert van Lagen.
- Gold’s steady rise, breaking $2,000 and now at $2,720, signals further bullish momentum with a potential target of $3,500.
- The S&P 500 shows strong upward momentum, targeting 6,000, after forming a bullish pattern and hitting 5,868.
According to analyst Gert van Lagen, Bitcoin (BTC), Gold (XAU), and the S&P 500 (SP500) are all exhibiting cup and handle formations, which typically signal a bullish trend. Van Lagen believes Bitcoin could follow the structural patterns of Gold and the SP500, with a potential price target of $230,000. Once these targets are achieved, a broader economic downturn may set in.
Bitcoin Poised for Major Rally
Bitcoin has shown a steady recovery after a dip in 2022, forming a rounded bottom followed by a breakout. At press time, Bitcoin was trading at $66, 934, with previous lows near $16,000.Â
Notably, the ongoing pattern suggests the possibility of a sharp upward trend, with a potential target above $200,000. This formation often signifies a long-term bullish continuation. Monitoring this trend is crucial so as to anticipate further gains if the breakout continues.
Gold Maintains Steady Growth
Gold’s price trend from 2013 to 2024 also reflects a similar formation. The metal’s rounded bottom began in 2013, and after a brief consolidation period, it broke above $2,000 in 2023. The price has now reached $2,720, with potential to rise further to $3,500.
Historically, this type of pattern reflects strength in Gold, especially in times of inflation or uncertainty. Investors may view this as a continuation of Gold’s long-term trend, given its solid performance over the years.
S&P 500 Eyes New Highs
Like Bitcoin and Gold, the SP500 has formed a bullish pattern. Following a drop to 3,500 in 2022, the index has rallied to 4,700, with a breakout around mid-2024 pushing it further to 5,868.
The target for this index is above 6,000, suggesting that confidence in the U.S. equity market remains high. Investors looking at this trend may find it indicative of further growth in corporate earnings or economic recovery.
All three assets are currently showcasing strong upward momentum. This alignment signals positive trends across both risk-on and safe-haven assets, as these patterns continue to suggest growth. However, each pattern’s long-term stability will depend on market conditions.
