Bitcoin trading signals can come from anywhere. It could range from just looking at charts to looking at how people react towards the purchase of certain assets.

Bitcoin has not been left out of this. The lockdowns of 2020 had markets apprehensive of impending crashes coming. And for a while, it was right. Market prices crashed as the world tried to figure out its way out of the pandemic. But once countries began to find their footing, the markets recovered in a way no one had anticipated. But a more interesting point is the price of bitcoin rallying according to flare-ups in COVID-19 cases. The times where there have been the most COVID-19 cases have also seen the price of BTC rise in tandem with it. An example of this is when Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $64K in May. During this same time period, the world had recorded the highest number of COVID-19 cases ever since the pandemic first broke out.

But Why Altcoins Are On The Rebound Presently, the price of BTC is up, notwithstanding the dip, maintaining the same movement patterns as COVID-19 cases worldwide. An important factor tying the two would be the stimulus checks being given to citizens. When countries went into lockdown due to the pandemic, countries had resorted to paying citizens who could not work to keep them afloat. Once these checks landed, it gave people more disposable income as a lot of things like the rent was put on hold in many jurisdictions. A lot of individuals getting these checks had used them to invest in financial markets like stocks and bitcoin. This contributed to the increase in the price of the digital asset. COVID-19 is still raging on in some countries. Some are set to go into lockdown again after coming out of the previous ones due to an increase in cases. If the pattern holds, then this wave of COVID-19 cases will see the price of bitcoin going higher again. Featured image from The Economic Times, charts from Twitter and TradingView.com
