🚨 Bitcoin Volatility Alarm Rings – Is a Massive Price Surge Imminent?

Bitcoin''s volatility indicator just flashed red—and history suggests fireworks may follow. The crypto king''s notorious price swings are back in focus as traders brace for potential momentum.

When the Bollinger Bands squeeze this tight, things get interesting.

Market whispers grow louder about an impending breakout. The last time this signal triggered, BTC ripped 40% in three weeks—but as any jaded trader knows, past performance just makes for prettier PowerPoints.

Will institutions FOMO in this time? Or will retail get left holding the bag again? One thing''s certain: Wall Street''s ''volatility is bad'' mantra doesn''t apply in crypto-land.

Strap in. The Bitcoin rollercoaster''s loading another cart.

The upper pane displays bitcoin''s weekly open, high, low, and close (per UTC) in candlestick format. The middle pane displays the spread, or the gap between the bollinger bands, with the MACD linked to the spread in the lower pane.

The MACD has now flipped positive, indicating a renewed widening of the spread or volatility boom ahead. By default, volatility is price-agnostic, meaning an impending activity could be bullish or bearish.

That said, a closer look at the above chart reveals that previous positive crossovers of the MACD (marked by vertical lines) presaged major bull runs, including the late 2020 and late 2024 price rallies.

Let''s see if history repeats itself.
