Currently, the 50-day and 200-day SMAs stand at $61,998 and $61,882, respectively, per data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView.<\/p>\n<figure data-ct-non-breakable=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2024-08\/1a77affc-130a-4daf-b357-5212b5a0cf2b.png\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption><em>BTC\/USD 1-day chart with 50, 200SMA.

The last daily death cross in 2023, in fact, precluded a bout of gains.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn 2023, BTC started its rally just after the death cross. It then got above its 50D SMA and subsequently held it as support before going higher,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>By contrast, in 2019, 2021 and 2022, a brief tap higher into the death cross event itself ultimately gave way to the expected result \u2014 losses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe durability of this move will likely depend on first BTC getting above its 50D SMA ($62k), and then holding it as support like it did in 2023,\u201d Cowen concluded.<\/p>\n<figure data-ct-non-breakable=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2024-08\/a68a965f-faae-4262-accb-e3aa7906410e.png\" alt=\"\" \/><figcaption><em>BTC\/USD chart.
