Although BTC is still in the red on a YTD basis, the past three months showed a significant improvement in its overall state, with September closing well in the green as well.<\/p>\n

The focus has now shifted to October, which has been BTC\u2019s greenest month since data has been tracked on CoinGlass. The question is: will history repeat, or will last year\u2019s edition reign again?<\/p>\n

3 In a Row<\/h2>\n

The primary cryptocurrency bottomed on July 1 at under $58,000 and rebounded in the following month to close with a 7.36% increase. Although the first half of August was quite sluggish, the second was spectacular as BTC exploded above $75,000 and ended the month with a 25% surge \u2013 the most since October 2023.<\/p>\n

It entered September at around $77,000 before it quickly skyrocketed to $82,000. The bears were quick to reemerge at this point and didn\u2019t allow it to continue further. Just the opposite; BTC slipped by several grand and slumped to $75,000 in the middle of the month as the CLARITY Act failed<\/a> in the US Senate and the Fed hiked<\/a> interest rates.<\/p>\n

To the surprise of many, given the aforementioned negative developments, the cryptocurrency bounced off immediately and reclaimed the $80,000 line by the end of that particular week. It hasn\u2019t traded below that level ever since. Moreover, it flew<\/a> to $87,000 on September 22 and 23, but it was stopped. Despite losing some ground by the end of September, it still closed with a 6.33% pump, making it the third consecutive green month and fifth for the year.<\/p>\n

Uptober or Redtober Next?<\/h2>\n

Ever since CoinGlass started tracking BTC\u2019s performance in 2013, October has been the asset\u2019s greenest month. 10 out of the past 13 editions have brought gains, and only three were in the red. When we add the three-month streak bitcoin has been on since July, the expectations for the next 30 days have increased considerably.<\/p>\n

Moreover, many analysts have determined<\/a> that BTC has reclaimed key resistance levels, which now means that the bull market is on, even though CryptoQuant warned yesterday that it might have slowed down<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking to CryptoPotato, Lacie Zhang, Research Analyst at Bitget Wallet, said yesterday that \u201cOctober has a strong historical track record for bitcoin,\u201d but \u201cseasonality alone is not an investment thesis.\u201d After all, recall that BTC reached its latest ATH precisely last October before it crumbled in the notorious massacre that left over $19 billion in liquidations<\/a> in 24 hours and went on a months-long red streak.<\/p>\n

\u201cBitcoin\u2019s median October return has historically been around 11%\u201314%. ETF inflows, declining exchange balances and corporate buying support the bullish case, while high interest rates, oil prices and renewed inflation pressure remain the main headwinds,\u201d Zhang added.<\/p>\n

The researcher outlined the base-case range for the month of $78,000-$95,000, but noted that if BTC holds the key $82,000 support and flips $87,500 into one, then $95,000 should be the next major target. On the other hand, a decisive break below $80,000 would \u201cinvalidate the seasonal bullish setup.\u201d<\/p>\n
