With the recent alts crash..the market became more bearish and charts of 2014 -2015 are moving around.. and while everybody fomo shorting a slow accumulation is in play
it is worth to remember that with each cycle an increasing trading volume and number of exchanges, the market becomes more mature which suggests slower move.
it seems that currently (2016 halving cycle) we are following the 2012 halving cycle with 50% slower timeframe
