In the latest Bitcoin news today, veteran trader Peter Brandt has highlighted a classic chart pattern, suggesting a major potential move for the BTC price. According to Brandt, Bitcoin is currently forming what he calls the “Banana Split,” which indicates a potential price surge. Crypto market is also seeing green after dip in oil prices and president Trump’s claims to end the war soon.
Peter Brandt Turns from Bear to Bull
Earlier today, Peter Brandt shared an X post, presenting his bullish outlook on BTC price. He displayed a Bitcoin chart which showed both immediate and future price movements that predicted an upcoming price increase.
According to Peter Brandt, Bitcoin is currently navigating a classic setup where a short-term pattern inside a long-term bullish trend often leads to a sharp price move. He is using his “Banana” chart analysis to show how the ‘Little Banana’ inside the ‘Big Banana’ could signal a BTC breakout.
Comparing historical cycles, Brandt points out similar patterns that tend to repeat roughly every 52 weeks. Within this long-term channel, the smaller “Little Banana” has now formed. This suggests that Bitcoin is preparing for the next major move, which he hails as the “Banana Split.” The current setup shows that BTC will experience a sudden breakout and move through a pattern that resembles its previous market cycles.
Peter’s tweet comes as the US Oil prices crashed yesterday over G7 nations planning reserves to deal with fuel shortage.
It is worth noting that Peter Brandt’s bullish prediction comes on the heels of his previous bearish stance. After remaining bearish about the coin for a period of time, Brandt turned bullish on BTC, as CoinGape reported. Recently, he stated that the crypto is likely to surge in October 2026.
Further, Peter Brandt provided another Bitcoin chart, presenting its weekly analysis. According to this chart, Bitcoin remains inside a larger parabolic channel. He calls this pattern the “Big Banana.” Historically, this long-term curve has taken the BTC price through multiple cycles.
What Could This Mean for BTC Price
Bitcoin has been under severe pressure, especially since the US-Iran war. However, the market has shown signs of relief recently, with the BTC price surging amid easing conflicts. The market sentiments have shifted positive after president Trump’s announcement to end US-Iran War soon.
The term Banana Split describes the expected BTC price increase that will happen after both the small and large bananas are formed. The short-term curve shows that BTC will experience significant growth, which will indicate the start of a bullish market. The pattern will result in a downward movement if it fails to succeed.
As of press time, BTC price value is marked at $69,803, up 3.2% in a day. Over the past week, the coin has surged by 2.7%, while it increased by a marginal 0.6% on a monthly basis. As per the Bitcoin news, if Peter Brandt’s projection comes true, the BTC price could hit ambitious highs like $280k in the long term.
