The veteran analyst who called Bitcoin’s 2017 top is tracking a 75-week pattern that suggests crypto’s current bull run has a precise expiration date
Peter Brandt has seen enough market cycles to spot patterns that escape most traders. The legendary commodities trader, who predicted Bitcoin’s 2017 peak, just shared a striking analysis that could determine when the current crypto bull market reaches its climax.
According to Brandt’s latest research, Bitcoin bull cycles follow a remarkably consistent 75-week pattern, give or take two weeks. His analysis reveals that the 2015-2017 bull cycle lasted exactly 75 weeks, and the 2018-2021 cycle also clocked in at 75 weeks with the same margin of error.
Don’t Miss:
If this pattern holds for the current cycle that began in 2022, Brandt predicts the bull market top will arrive during the week of Sept. 22, plus or minus two weeks. This puts the potential peak window between Sept. 15 and Sept. 28.
But here’s where it gets interesting for investors: Brandt isn’t just timing the cycle—he’s pricing it too. His analysis suggests Bitcoin could reach between $125,000 and $145,000 if the historical pattern repeats.
This isn’t just chart reading—it’s pattern recognition based on multiple completed cycles that Brandt has tracked over several years.
For retail investors, this analysis offers both opportunity and warning. Bitcoin has already demonstrated its ability to follow cyclical patterns, making Brandt’s framework a valuable timing tool. However, the same pattern that could drive Bitcoin to new heights also suggests a definitive endpoint.

The implications extend beyond Bitcoin itself. If the largest cryptocurrency follows this timeline, it could influence the entire crypto market’s trajectory. Altcoins typically amplify Bitcoin’s movements, meaning the September timeframe could mark peak euphoria across digital assets.
