Miraculous October: historically, this month has shown the best prices for Bitcoin. Will it make money this time?

Statistics say that October and November are competing with each other for the title of the most bullish months for Bitcoin. What will happen this time? We collected the opinions of various experts in one article.

October opportunities

So far, everything is going according to statistical predictions. September has traditionally been a weak month for Bitcoin, according to a recent Bloomberg publication. But the following month, October, has almost always resulted in BTC taking off, according to historical data.

The virtual currency tends to rise roughly 25% in October and has, since 2015, advanced more than 85% of the time during it, according to Bespoke Investment Group. 

“For the average monthly moves, October ranks as the best for Bitcoin,” Bespoke’s Jake Gordon wrote in a note. 

According to historical data, November is the second most favorable month for Bitcoin. Many analysts expect a price rally by the New Year.

As a result, all the data by month can be summarized in a similar table from The ₿irb Nest:
