While many celebrate the increase in the M2 Money Supply\u2014a key economic indicator\u2014there\u2019s a vital need to understand the timing of its effects.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Historically, M2 has shown a strong correlation with Bitcoin\u2019s price movements. Unlike stock markets, which typically react to M2 expansions after a lag of about six months, Bitcoin tends to respond more rapidly, though not instantaneously.<\/p>\n<p>According to the analyst, the \u201cmisconception\u201d that money printing leads to immediate market upswings is addressed, as there are multiple factors at play, including macroeconomic conditions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decisions regarding <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-slips-under-200-day-moving-average-will-the-downtrend-continue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interest rates<\/a> are particularly influential. Although official data suggests inflation is declining, underlying realities, such as OPEC\u2019s influence on oil prices, complicate the outlook.<\/p>\n<p>In the context of rising M2, Doctor Profit predicts that Bitcoin\u2019s bullish trend could resume around May or June, but anticipates a period of sideways movement and potential short-term bearish pressure leading up to that point. He warns that many who are currently bullish may shift to a bearish stance as the market evolves.<\/p>\n<p>In the report, Doctor Profit highlights the significance of the weekly EMA50\u2014a critical moving average he refers to as the \u201cGolden Line\u201d\u2014which Bitcoin has respected in recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-to-bottom-around-70000-arthur-hayes-says-correction-very-normal-in-a-bull-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">price action<\/a>. After bouncing off this line at $76,000, the cryptocurrency reached the anticipated $87.4K, triggering several short positions.<\/p>\n<h2>Long-Term Bullish Outlook With Short-Term Caution<\/h2>\n<p>Looking ahead, Doctor Profit\u2019s strategy involves targeting a potential drop to the $70,000 to $74,000 zone. This region is crucial; if Bitcoin merely wicks into it but then closes strongly above the Golden Line, he plans to take long positions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Doctor Profit maintains a bullish <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/fund-manager-bitcoin-crush-gold-1-million-by-2029\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">long-term outlook<\/a>, expecting a resumption of the bull run by mid-2024, with price targets ranging from $120,000 to $140,000. He remains cautious, holding significant cash reserves and expanding short positions in anticipation of market fluctuations.\n<\/p>\n<p>Doctor Profit outlines two bearish scenarios that traders should consider: a manageable drop to the $70,000 to $74,000 range and the more severe \u201cBlack Swan\u201d event that could push prices down to the $50,000 region. While he is confident in a bounce at the higher target, he advises preparedness for both scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, BTC is hovering around $84,000, recording losses of 3.5% and 12% in the fourteen and thirty days time frame respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Bitcoin (BTC) stabilizes above the critical $80,000 support level after a significant downturn of over 25% from its January peak, market analyst Doctor Profit has released a compelling report that raises a pivotal question: is the market witnessing the onset of a bear market, or is the bullish sentiment still intact?
