I noticed an interesting thing while looking at Bitcoin's historical charts around halvings. It seems there is a fairly consistent pattern: buying about 500 days before the event, then selling 500 days afterward. Looking back, in the 2020 halving, this pattern worked well — those who accumulated earlier saw the price rise significantly in the following months. It also played out in 2016. Now that we're in 2026 and the price is around $73.82K, I wonder if this cycle will continue to repeat. The theory is that the market anticipates the 2020 halving and beyond, following this 500-day rhythm. If the pattern holds, the best time to accumulate would have been before the halving, and now we're in the exit window. Of course, it's not certain, but it's a pattern to watch if you're trading on long cycles.
