Bitcoin post-halving “danger zone”, officially over
The other day, on May 13, popular crypto analyst Rekt Capital suggested via a post on his X account, that Bitcoin’s post-halving “danger zone” is officially over.
Yesterday, Bitcoin was able to bounce back over the important level of $62k, and the trader noted that the coin is celebrating leaving the “danger zone” with a bounce from the Re-Accumulation Range Low Support.

This “danger zone” refers to the period following the halving event when the asset typically corrects.
The analyst also noted that if $65k was not the bottom for Bitcoin, this current pullback would have officially equaled the longest retrace in the cycle at 63 days. According to him, history suggests that the current pullback ended at $56k and 47 days.

The analyst also showed his optimism, saying that BTC is showing early-stage signs of slowing down in its sell-side momentum, slowly developing a curl against the $60k support. This mark needs to continue to hold as it has been holding thus far for this curl to progress and eventually lift up, he noted in another post on X.

Bitcoin bounced near the $62 important mark again as traders are waiting for the release of inflation data in the United States.
This information could play a crucial role in determining if and when the Federal Reserve will decide to reduce borrowing costs in 2024.
This week, the market will get a chance for more clarity with US inflation readings in the form of the Producer Price Index (PPI) on Tuesday followed by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Wednesday.
