Bitcoin RSI continued to copy previous bear markets as a trader predicted that historical BTC price bottom signals would "happen again" in 2026.
Bitcoin (BTC) should repeat history and put in a bear-market bottom when a classic indicator hits zero, a trader says.
In an X post at the weekend, Max Crypto went on record to forecast the end of the 2026 bear market when the stochastic relative strength index (RSI) hits a new swing low.
"Stoch" RSI is a derivative of RSI, a popular leading indicator, with a greater bias on recent price moves.
“Every time the 2M Stoch RSI had a bullish cross and dropped to 0, $BTC bottomed,” Max Crypto wrote in accompanying commentary.

Two-month stoch RSI measures 4.81, having dropped into its sub-30 “oversold” zone during March, data from TradingView confirms. Current levels were last observed just over three years ago.
Stoch RSI has already formed a focus for market participants this year, with daily moves previously drawing comparisons to the 2022 bear market.
In April, crypto trader Quantum Ascend described BTC price history as “playing out nearly perfectly.”
Turning to traditional RSI data, traders continue to look for bullish cues as BTC/USD treads water above $60,000.
