Market expert Ali Martinez recently revealed on X (formerly Twitter) what he 
describes as “the secret to every major Bitcoin bull run since 2011,” saying 
October could offer one of the best entry points ahead of the next bull 
market. Martinez shared an on‑chain fractal breakdown that points to a 
potential “final discount” in October of this year, where investors might find 
optimal buying opportunities before the next sustained uptrend. Bitcoin Could 
Bottom At $41,000-$45,000 In his social media post, Martinez suggests that 
Bitcoin is still operating within a four‑year rhythm that breaks down into a 
sequence of accumulation, markup, distribution, and a bear phase. Within that 
larger cycle, he highlights two shorter subcycles and asserts the market is 
now moving into what he describes as the “final discount” period. Using that 
framework, Martinez puts a likely “golden entry” window between October 6 and 
October 16, 2026. Related Reading: Ethereum Bottom Signal? Analyst Maps Out 
Road To $10,000 Beyond timing, Martinez offered specific price bands for ideal 
buying opportunities. He identified entry points in the $41,500 to $45,000 
range, which would represent declines of roughly 41% and 36%, respectively, 
from current trading levels of around $70,800. October Launchpad Those 
potential retracements in the coming months imply that Bitcoin may still have 
substantial downside before the October window, according to his reading of 
past cycles. Related Reading: Dogecoin Could 200% Rally If This Floor Holds, 
Analyst Says However, Martinez framed the scenario as an actionable pattern 
rather than mere speculation: if the fractal holds, the October interval could 
serve as the launchpad that begins a fresh four‑year cycle and sets the stage 
for the next vertical price move. The expert concluded his Monday social media 
post by saying the “countdown to the next Bitcoin vertical move has begun.”
