Bitcoin (BTC) could be preparing for another major bull rally as a Golden Cross has recently appeared on the cryptocurrency’s Inter-exchange Flow Pulse (IFP). A crypto analyst who explained the significance of this occurrence notes that the timeline of this Golden Cross aligns almost perfectly with past bull rallies. Based on this historical trend, the analyst suggests that the next two to three weeks are important for Bitcoin’s next move.
Historical Golden Cross Pattern Signals Bitcoin Rally
Crypto market expert CW has shared a new Bitcoin forecast that, if realized, could completely invalidate the widespread bearish outlook for the cryptocurrency. In his post on X, the analyst shares a chart displaying BTC’s Inter-exchange Flow Pulse, a key on-chain indicator that tracks the net flow of Bitcoin between exchanges.

Usually, this indicator signals a bull market when it turns green and a bear market or correction when it turns red. This particular metric is often used to identify Bitcoin’s market position and has gained recognition for its strong track record of predicting major market turning points.
During his analysis, CW noted a recurring Golden Cross pattern that has appeared twice in Bitcoin’s history on the Inter-exchange Flow Pulse chart. The first time this crossover occurred was in 2019, and then it was subsequently repeated in 2023. In both cases, the analyst noted that the Golden Cross had foreshadowed the start of a massive bull rally that lasted for months.
However, the anticipated rally did not start immediately after the Golden Cross emerged. Instead, the broader market waited 30 to 40 days before the Bitcoin bull run began. Specifically, during the 2019 cycle, BTC consolidated for about 30 days after its Golden Cross before skyrocketing above $40,000 from a low price between $4,000 and $10,000. This bull rally had also extended into the 2021 bull market, where the cryptocurrency found a top of $69,000.
Subsequently, in 2023, the chart shows that Bitcoin crashed below $20,000 following the 2022 bear market. Shortly after, the same Golden Cross appeared again on the Inter-exchange Flow Pulse. Just 40 days later, Bitcoin climbed above $100,000, extending its bull run into 2025.
BTC Set For Explosive Run As New Golden Cross Emerges
Fast forward to today, CW noted in his analysis that the market cycle is currently 33 days past its most recent Golden Cross on the Inter-exchange Flow Pulse. This places the Bitcoin price right within the historical 30-40 day window. As a result, if the pattern continues to hold, Bitcoin could be on the verge of another sustained bull rally.

With only a few days left in this window, the analyst warns that the next two to three weeks are critical, urging investors and traders to watch BTC’s price closely. Based on past trends, a confirmed breakout during this period could likely be the start of a bull run.
