U.Today - MVRV Z-Score, a sophisticated Bitcoin (BTC) valuation indicator, is getting closer to a zone that historically opened amazing opportunities for Bitcoin (BTC) bulls. In 2019 and 2015, touching these levels resulted in "parabolic" rallies, a seasoned cryptocurrency analyst says.

Bitcoin (BTC): This indicator hints at "parabolic" performance

His audience shares this opinion. Typically, below $24,000 is considered to be a "no-brainer" buy zone in the ongoing period of a market cycle. However, traders should be ready for panic-driven drops to the "low-20s."
