Following an earlier prediction of the Bitcoin flash crash to $94,000, a crypto analyst has set a new target for the pioneer cryptocurrency. The analyst anticipates another major decline in the Bitcoin price before it hits a new all-time high.
$130,000 Target In Sight After Bitcoin Flash Crash
The broader crypto market has undergone a significant correction sparked by the recent Bitcoin flash crash. In the past week, the price of Bitcoin lost $3,000 in less than 30 minutes, dropping from $97,000 to $94,000 before quickly rebounding back above $97,000. This unexpected flash crash triggered widespread liquidations, with more than $1.5 billion in long and short positions wiped out as traders scrambled to mitigate losses.

With Bitcoin currently showing signs of momentum, analysts have voiced expectations of a future price rally. Notably, a TradingView crypto analyst, identified as ‘Setupsfx,’ shared a detailed price chart predicting Bitcoin’s future movements and next target.
The analyst accurately forecasted Bitcoin’s flash crash to $94,000 and has now expanded his predictions to include a potential recovery phase. According to his latest analysis, Bitcoin is expected to find strong support around the $96,000 level following a short-term price correction to this key zone. This new support level is seen as a healthy retracement to help build momentum for upward movement.
The analyst’s chart depicts an accumulation phase on the left side, during which prices seem to be moving sideways, forming strong lows while filling Fair Value Gaps (FVG). Additionally, order blocks and Breaks of Structure (BOS) can be identified on the Bitcoin price chart.
According to the chart, the Bitcoin price successfully broke out of the aforementioned accumulation zone and started a rally that led to its ATH above $100,000. This bullish momentum aligns with the hype from the US Presidential election, which fueled Bitcoin’s rise to a new all-time high.
With this in mind, the analyst predicts that Bitcoin will experience another pullback, likely testing the $96,000 zone before a price reversal. This reversal is expected to ignite a fresh rally, potentially pushing Bitcoin toward a new target of $130,000.
