A correction is a term that is used to describe a reversal after a significant market movement (usually over a short time frame).
If anything, the current bullish momentum is the correction following the events of Black Thursday, which saw BTC and most other cryptocurrencies get absolutely stomped in Mid-March.
I dont think we'll go far below $8,000 until some time after the halving (if only temporarily).
Agreed that the current upwards movement is a correction from the panic sell back in March.
But also I would certainly describe a drop from 9400 to 8400, which we already had in the day after the pump, as a correction, and I bet it goes lower still.
That's not a correction but rather a hype due to the upcoming halving. This is common scenario that bitcoin pump to an incredible percentage just like what happened on previous halving. The big drop from 9400 to 8400 is what you called correction due to sudden price charge. The march panic sell already corrected when the price reach 6000 to 7000 range on that same month also.
This big price movement is just a hype that whales always do to manipulate price by using the halving event.
No. Halving is well known about and is fully priced in. Any pump is not due to halving. Pump is either from whales initiating a pump and retail market following through or from the price simply continuing to correct back from the pandemic panic dump, or really more likely simply from the natural occurrence of the market pushing on a big resistance zone until it broke and then as what often happens if shoots up afterwards, then corrects downwards - that is an exact description of what happened the past two days. The market is not suddenly hearing about the halving two weeks before it occurs, it is an extremely well known event.
