💡 About Monthly Seasonality

Bitcoin exhibits seasonal patterns, with certain months historically outperforming others. November and December are typically strong (year-end rallies), while June and September often see weakness (summer lull, tax selling). However, these patterns are statistical averages and don't guarantee future performance. Use seasonality as one factor among many in your analysis.

💡 Understanding Bitcoin Seasonality

Halving Cycles: Bitcoin's supply issuance is cut in half every ~4 years (210,000 blocks). This creates a predictable supply shock that historically drives bull markets 12-18 months post-halving. The cycle typically follows: Accumulation → Bull Market → Distribution → Bear Market.

Monthly Patterns: Certain months show consistent patterns due to tax selling (April, September), year-end rallies (November, December), and summer lulls (June, July). These patterns are statistical tendencies, not guarantees.

Using Seasonality: Combine seasonal analysis with on-chain metrics, technical indicators, and macro factors. Seasonality is most useful for timing entries/exits within broader trends. Don't trade seasonality alone—use it to refine timing of high-conviction trades.
