The chart, plotted on Bitcoin\u2019s weekly timeframe, outlines a multi-year roadmap that could first subject the cryptocurrency to significant downside pressure, potentially triggering a price crash to $40,000 before setting the stage for<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/the-bitcoin-stars-have-aligned\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> an explosive rally<\/a> that could shock investors and traders.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Elliott Wave Pattern Points to $40,000 Bitcoin Price Dip<\/h2>\n<p>V\u2019s analysis on X begins by identifying<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-stronger-breakout-rally\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> a completed five-wave structure<\/a> that carried Bitcoin from its 2022 lows to an early 2025 peak around $109,354. Those waves, clearly labeled 1 through 5 on the chart, mark the end of Bitcoin\u2019s first major impulse move.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>From here, V <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/finsends\/status\/2027685210494828863\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">projects<\/a> that Bitcoin could now enter<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/250-price-surge-bitcoin-300000\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> a Wave 2 correction<\/a>, which could take the form of a classic ABC zigzag pattern. In this projected scenario, Wave A is forecasted to bottom somewhere between the 50% and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement levels, triggering a Bitcoin price decline to the $51,000 to $62,000 range.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-884912\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bitcoin-chart-from-V.jpg?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C294\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"294\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Following this, Wave B is expected to see a small relief bounce, pushing Bitcoin back up toward the 100% to 132% extension zone between $109,354 to $120,594 on the chart. Once this bounce occurs, V predicts a final downside target in Wave C. He forecasts that the Bitcoin price could decline to the $51,336 to $35,564 range, representing a massive 55% to 69% decrease from the previous bounce area.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Notably, V has stated that<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-bottom-how-low-price\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> Bitcoin\u2019s projected move to its final bearish target<\/a> could catch the majority of investors and traders completely off guard. This is because a relief rally back towards six figures in Wave B would likely restore investor confidence and draw buyers back in, only for the market to decline all over again to an even steeper target. In other words, it could be a<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/dont-fall-for-the-bitcoin-trap\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> bull trap<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>The Bitcoin End Game That Could Shock Investors<\/h2>\n<p>Following the anticipated completion of the Wave 2 correction, V predicts the onset of Wave 3, a phase that could trigger a powerful<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoins-record-red-month-may-be-setting-up-a-reversal-analysts\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> bullish reversal for Bitcoin<\/a>. The chart illustrates a projected rally, highlighted by a rising arrow. Bitcoin is expected to retest and reclaim its previous resistance level around $109,354, marking a potential gain of more than 207% from its projected Wave C bottom around $35,564.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Once BTC crosses this resistance with strong momentum, the chart projects a stronger upward push toward<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/analyst-says-bitcoin-is-primed-for-a-breakout-is-btc-heading-for-150000-rally\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> a shocking $150,000 target<\/a>. Notably, the last time Bitcoin was remotely close to this level was in October 2025, when its price skyrocketed to<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-price-crossing-126000-options-market\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> new all-time highs above $126,000<\/a>. If the V\u2019s Elliott Wave forecast plays out as expected, it would mark a new historic ATH for BTC.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/78w05Hi8\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1636\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A technical analyst known as \u2018V\u2019 has shared a striking Elliott Wave Theory-based Bitcoin price outlook on X that he believes most market participants are completely overlooking.
