However, a CMT-certified analyst suggests that Bitcoin\u2019s price correction is far from over. He has <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tonythebullBTC\/status\/1908916335901364368\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">predicted<\/a> an even deeper pullback to $38,000 &#8211; $42,000, which he identifies as Bitcoin\u2019s final price bottom.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a detailed Elliott Wave-based chart analysis, CMT-certified technical analyst Tony Severino outlines a classic Bitcoin\u2019s latest decline to $74,000 is merely the start of a broader ABC corrective pattern, potentially driving the cryptocurrency down to a bottom in the range of $38,000 &#8211; $42,000.<\/p>\n<h2>New Bitcoin Price Bottom Incoming<\/h2>\n<p>In Bitcoin\u2019s 5-wave impulse structure, Wave 1 began with a sharp bear market low, followed by Wave 2, a corrective pullback. Wave 3 marked the strongest upward move, subdivided into five smaller waves (i to v). After the market paused briefly for a pullback in Wave 4, Wave 5 kicked off with a final push toward a peak near $85,000.<\/p>\n<p>Following the top of Wave 5, Bitcoin\u2019s ABC corrective structure began, marked by the red line on the chart. According to the analyst, the cryptocurrency is currently completing Wave A of this corrective pattern, which is expected to bottom out near $62,000 &#8211; $65,000 by June 2025. This price range coincides with the previous main correction zone around Wave 4, which is a common target for Wave A retracements.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-727569\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Tony-Severino.jpg?w=512&#038;resize=512%2C335\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"335\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Notably, a bigger concern comes after Bitcoin\u2019s possible crash to $65,000 &#8211; $62,000. The analyst anticipates a short-lived bounce in Wave B, followed by a more pronounced decline in Wave C. This downturn is expected to push the Bitcoin price to its <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-price-bottomed-be-sure\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">final bottom target<\/a> between $38,000 and $42,000 by April 2026. This pullback target further aligns with the iv sub-wave of Wave 3, which often serves as a key retracement zone during market corrections.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Severino has confirmed through his technical analysis that the market is now in a bear phase. His price chart incorporates cyclical timing models, marking a complete market cycle characterized by a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/record-breaking-bitcoin-surges-past-109000\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">bull market peak<\/a> in 2025, followed by a bear market extending into mid-2026. This timeline is consistent with Bitcoin&#8217;s typical <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-halving-trends-150-gains-for-current-cycle\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">four-year halving cycle<\/a>, where the market reaches its peak the year after the halving event before entering a bear market phase.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Analyst Flags Death Cross In BTC\u2019s Chart<\/h2>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/barchart\/status\/1909314247051387249?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">reports<\/a> from BarChart on X, Bitcoin has just formed a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-flashes-death-cross-on-daily-chart-deeper-downtrend-ahead\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Death Cross on its price chart<\/a> for the first time since September 2024. A Death Cross occurs when the 50 Moving Average (MA) crosses below the 200 MA.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This distinct chart pattern is often considered a bearish sign, indicating that a potential downtrend might be on the horizon.
