Bitcoin is overdue for moves of 30% or more, Fundstrat says

TL;DR

  • Bitcoin's volatility is near historic lows, signaling a potential move of 30% or more in the next two months.
  • Historically, periods of low volatility have been followed by larger price swings, with a median absolute move of about 30% over 60 days.
  • These past events have resulted in both gains and losses, meaning the signal indicates potential magnitude, not direction.
  • A recent rally appears driven by traders closing bearish positions, evident in falling open interest in perpetual futures.
  • Rising long-term real yields in the bond market are identified as a potential risk that could break Bitcoin's low-volatility spell.
