A recent upswing in the price of Bitcoin (BTC) following a nail-biting price crash below $30,000 on June 22 has activated a classic financial model's bullish outlook on the cryptocurrency. Called the Wyckoff method — created by Richard Wyckoff in 1888 — the model attempts to navigate financial market trends based on the relationship between the supply and demand of assets. The method has two schematics: accumulation and distribution. In an accumulation setup, an asset signals bottoming out following a sharper price decline. It eventually leads to the price rebounding to the upside. Meanwhile, the distribution setup sees the asset …

The flagship cryptocurrency continued its price declines into the new weekly session, hitting $32,105 ahead of the London opening bell following an approximately 10% intraday drop.
