CryptoCompass editorial visual for bitcoin coverage.

CoinTurk News EN and Coinfomania both cite Galaxy Research's '43 out of 106' figure for 50-day moving average breakouts but interpret it in opposite directions.

CoinTurk News EN and Coinfomania both cite Galaxy Research's '43 out of 106' figure for 50-day moving average breakouts but interpret it in opposite directions.

What all sources agree on

  • Galaxy Research says confirmation of a Bitcoin bull market requires a weekly close above the 50-week moving average.
  • The 50-week moving average is cited at approximately $82,000-$82,470.
  • Bitcoin rebounded 32.4% from its June 30 low.
  • The analysis covers historical bear market cycles, with the 50-week moving average showing only 2 false signals in the relevant historical sample.
  • The 50-day moving average is described as a less reliable indicator than the 50-week moving average.

Where the reports disagree

1Whether 43 out of 106 represents successful or failed 50-day moving average breakouts

Out of 106 historic breakouts above the 50-day moving average, 43 turned out to be false.

50-day moving average reclaims often fail; only 43 out of 106 were successful.

What would settle it: Galaxy Research's original published note or report.

What to make of it

Treat the $82,000-$82,470 weekly-close threshold and the 32.4% rebound figure as consistent across reports; the '43 out of 106' statistic on 50-day moving average reliability is reported with opposite meanings and should not be cited either way until Galaxy Research's original note is checked.
