Half of September has passed and bitcoin traders are curious about where the price is headed next, as September is traditionally a bearish month for crypto prices. Furthermore, October is known to be a bullish month as bitcoin has been profitable in October more than 77% of the time. Data shows the leading crypto asset’s price trend may not break September’s historical trends, but very well could see a revival next month.
Bitcoin Traders Patiently Wait for September to End
This month’s bitcoin price data indicates that bitcoin (BTC) is following the same trend it has followed over the last decade. Typically BTC prices in September are awful and this month has been no different. 3,303 days ago, bitcoin prices slipped from $240 per unit to $138 per bitcoin on September 1, 2013. Bitcoin prices were in the red in September 2014 as well, as BTC’s U.S. dollar value started the month at $482.28 per unit. BTC’s USD value slipped that month 21.79% lower to $377.18 per coin by the end of September 2014.
Similarly in 2015, BTC’s value in September was higher during the first of the month, and ended lower 30 days later. In 2016, BTC’s value in September dropped 1.41% lower and in September 2017, BTC’s price lost 19.64% that month during the 30-day span. From the beginning of September 2018 to the end of the month, bitcoin’s U.S. dollar value shed 8.89%. In September 2019, BTC lost roughly 16.94% during the course of the month. September 2020 was a decent month for BTC, as it remained bullish and gained 4.81% against the U.S. dollar at the time.
Most people remember what happened in 2021, as BTC’s price was lower and bearish sentiment engulfed the trading community last September. While BTC had a sub-par month in September 2021, the price rebounded in October and it reached a lifetime price high on November 10, 2021. The last decade of bearish September months has made it so traders would like to be woken up when the month ends, as October bulls could revive the price. The patterns over the last decade show that while September is typically bearish, October is usually bullish in contrast.
