BRVX Glossary · Bull market · Updated September 25, 2026

A bull market is a sustained period of rising prices in a market or asset, commonly defined for stock indexes as a rise of 20% or more from a recent low. It comes with optimism, rising volumes and investors buying dips rather than selling rallies.

Common signs

  • Higher highs and higher lows on the weekly chart.
  • Price above its 200-day moving average, often after a golden cross.
  • Pullbacks that are bought quickly.
  • Rising participation: more assets joining the rise, not just a few.

How bull markets end

No bell rings at the top. Bull markets end when rising prices stop attracting new buyers — often after a macro shock, a policy change or leverage built up during the run. In crypto, crowded leveraged longs can turn a pullback into a cascade of liquidations.

On BRVX

A perpetual lets you go long or short on the same market, so a bull market is one direction of the same instrument, not a separate product. On BRVX stock and commodity quotes move through weekends, so a weekend rally shows up on the chart before the Monday open.
