Historical Market Cycle: 2014-2018
The chart highlights the 2014-2018 altcoin market cycle, which begins with a double bottom formation, signaling the end of a bearish period. This pattern often indicates a reversal, leading to a new upward trend. Following the double bottom, the market experienced its first significant rise, known as Impulse Wave 1.

This wave marked the initial bullish momentum, which was followed by a mid-cycle correction. This correction allowed for consolidation in the market, preparing it for the next move upward. As the market resumed its bullish trend, Impulse Wave 2 occurred, pushing the altcoin market to new highs and completing the cycle.
Current Market Cycle: 2018-2024
The current altcoin market appears to be following a similar structure. As seen, the 2018-2024 cycle started with a double bottom formation, indicating the potential end of a downtrend. This has led to the first impulse wave, similar to what was observed in the previous cycle.
Following this upward movement, the market has undergone a mid-cycle correction, represented by a wedge or triangle pattern. This phase suggests a period of consolidation, which may lead to another upward push in the coming months.
Signs of Impulse Wave 2 in the Making
Notably, the chart shows the market entering a critical phase, resembling the start of the second impulse wave. The yellow-highlighted section on the chart indicates this phase, which could see the market continuing its upward momentum. Historical patterns from the 2014-2018 cycle suggest that after the mid-cycle correction, the altcoin market could follow the same bullish trajectory, potentially leading to further growth.
