As a technical rule, a breakout above the pattern\u2019s upper boundary may trigger a parabolic rise.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s daily chart shows two megaphone patterns, as shown in the figure below. The first is a smaller one formed since July 11, and the recent rebound from the pattern\u2019s lower trendline at $108,000 suggests the formation is indeed playing out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The pattern will be confirmed once the price breaks above the upper trend line around $124,900, coinciding with the\u00a0new all-time highs\u00a0reached on Aug. 14. The measured target for this pattern is $144,200, or a 27% increase from the current level.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2025-08\/0198f0ad-a8e0-778e-944f-65f932c8896e\" \/><figcaption><em>BTC\/USD daily chart.
