Of the 19 indicators, more than 60% were triggered – and the evidence suggests that the market could be at a turning point. These include triggers increases in the Federal Reserve interest rates or an inverted yield curve.

Bitcoin knows no bear market
Although Bitcoin has never experienced a real bear market, suggests to some that the price is through the observation of stock can be predicted. These Economists believe that the shares and Bitcoin are inversely proportional. This means that If one increases, decreases the other.
This relationship is based on the Belief that Bitcoin acts largely as a “safe haven”. The global markets move as a result of the government policy in the negative range.
Since it is decoupled from the policy, flows to the investors in droves, in order to protect the value. Precious metals work in the same way.
For this reason, investors should expect a rise in Bitcoin, if the stock market is in bear-moved to the territory. Should the shares of its bull market, however, continue to, could it be that Bitcoin is recorded for some time, there is no strong profits.
Example for the phenomenon: As the Coronavirus-news, the shares in the negative, sent, increased by Bitcoin. This suggests that investors do not view the Coin as the markets are decoupled and an investment to be ready for when the other option close window.
Because Bitcoin investors, however, have never experienced really a real downturn in the market, the future is unclear.
