Prominent old-school trader, Peter Brandt, drew similarities between the current trend of BTC and the trend in November 2015. The trader said,

“The last time Factor’s benchmark weekly MA was in the current profile of turning from down to up was in Nov 2015 just as $BTC began its move from $340 to $19,800.”

This might indicate the beginning of a bull run for BTC. However, the current rise in price is considered a big dump by the whales.
