“The rear view mirror is always more clearer than the windshield.”
No one can predict the future with 100% certainty, but we can learn from the past. Looking back at how the markets have performed during previous months and years can give you an idea of what may be in store for the future.
The month of July brought Bitcoin from $30,000 USD to $40,000 USD, August brought it from $40,000 USD to above $50,000 USD, and September gave Bitcoin that much needed rest before October brought it to a new all time high of $67,000 USD. November brought new all time highs at $69,000 USD before dropping to $54,000 USD for a huge discount to traders and investors. December is usually a bullish month but the bears brought Bitcoin all the way down to $46,000 USD.
2021 is finished. 2022 is here. What can we expect from the month of January?
In the stock market, January has been shown to be a good time to buy stocks. Many investors start to buy stocks during this time, perhaps investing their end of year bonuses into the market.
What about the cryptocurrency market? Historically, how has Bitcoin performed during the month of January? Will January be a red month? Or will it be taking Bitcoin to higher highs?
The statistics for January show that this month could go either way. Will the bulls remain in control of the trend? Or will the bulls step up to the plate?
Over the last decade, five out of ten January months were green. On average, when Bitcoin saw positive returns, Bitcoin had an increase of nearly 25%! When January has been red, the average returns were about -16%.
Investors and traders should be cautious this month. The month of January was green in 2021. The months of April, May, November and December have historically been green months, but 2021 decided that they all would be red last year. What’s in store for 2022?
The Greed and Fear Index has been ranging between “Extreme Fear” and “Fear.” It is currently at “Fear.”
The new year started off with a nice green daily candle for Bitcoin. Bitcoin has built itself a strong base of support at $45,000 USD but is struggling to overcome resistance at $48,000 USD. I expect a little sideways action for Bitcoin this month. Hopefully the bulls can hold the line or else the bears will take full control and bring the price down to $40,000 this month.
Anything can happen. Always expect the unexpected. Stick to your plan. Take profits. Set your stop losses. Don’t get greedy.
