The Bollinger bandwidth, a key technical indicator for Bitcoin (BTC), has narrowed to less than 10%, a level not seen since before the U.S. elections in November. This indicates a potential volatility explosion ahead, similar to the price surge that occurred after the indicator reached this level last time. Volatility is typically mean-reverting, and when the daily bandwidth drops below 10%, it often leads to increased turbulence. Traders are waiting for confirmation from the market, with a move above the upper band signaling a bullish volatility explosion and a dip below the lower band suggesting the opposite. BTC is currently trading between the two bands, but the prospect of renewed volatility could lead to derivative bets from savvy traders.
