Bitcoin just posted its strongest weekly close in 35 weeks, and history says that is a good sign for holders.

• This kind of weekly close has happened 20 times before in Bitcoin's history.
• Looking back, prices were higher a month later about two-thirds of the time.
• The odds improved the further out you looked — stronger at three months, stronger still at six.
• The pattern suggests patience pays more than quick trading here.

Outlook: If past behavior holds, the next few months lean higher for Bitcoin, with the best odds over a six-month window.
