Analysis: Bitcoin has formed a hammer candlestick pattern for two consecutive weeks, which may indicate a key turning point

According to ChainCatcher news reported by CoinDesk, Bitcoin has exhibited consecutive hammer candlestick patterns over the past two weeks, a situation that is extremely rare in Bitcoin's history. The hammer candlestick pattern defined by analyst Checkmate refers to a candlestick where the upper or lower shadow accounts for 90% of the total price range, leaving a small body and long shadows.Data shows that during the week of February 24, Bitcoin's price fluctuated between a low of $78,167 and a high of $96,515, with a range of 23%. In the following week starting March 3, the price fluctuated between a low of $81,444 and a high of $94,415, with a range of 16%. Both weeks formed an open-high-low-close candlestick pattern, with fluctuations reaching double-digit percentages.Checkmate's analysis indicates that the hammer candlestick pattern with 90% lower shadow on the weekly chart has only occurred in five periods in Bitcoin's history: during the 2017 bull market, near the peak of the bull market at $69,000 at the end of 2021, after the Silicon Valley Bank crisis in 2023, after the summer pullback in 2023, and during the summer slump in 2024.Although this data does not show a clear pattern in Bitcoin cycles, the adjustment during the 2017 bull market is particularly notable, suggesting that such patterns may indicate critical turning points in price trends.
