According to Merten, big spikes in volume on Bitcoin (BTC) chart have historically served as reliable indictors to be sure of trend reversals. He stated that the current spike in volume is similar to the bottom of the price corrections in both March 2020 and May 2021.

Nicholas Merten noted:

“That has led to the exacerbated rallies in price, recoveries in the market, and all the new all-time highs that we’ve set but it also played a role in the sharp 50% corrections that we’ve seen throughout this cycle, many times before.”
