That said, he stressed that the pattern cannot be confirmed until it is completed, which is why bears shouldn’t get overly excited about the prospects of another massive correction.
A pattern is NEVER a pattern until it is completed and confirmed. I point out a lot of developing patterns — you, like many novices, take that is representing my position and opinion.

For now, the “double top” scenario is only of “passing interest” for Brandt. He has merely pointed out a developing pattern that could get bulls in trouble, stressing that it doesn’t necessarily represent his position or opinion.
The largest cryptocurrency is changing hands at $48,192 after a 6% drop on Thursday.
Bitcoin is roughly 30% away from its all-time peak of $69,044 that was reached a month ago.
As reported by U.Today, prominent value investor Louis Navellier recently predicted that the price of Bitcoin could collapse below $10,000 if the largest cryptocurrency were to complete the double top pattern.
