Technical Correction

Definition

A technical correction describes a short-term price decline in an asset or market, typically between 10% and 20% from its recent peak, often occurring after a period of rapid price appreciation. This downward movement is generally viewed as a healthy market adjustment, allowing prices to consolidate before potentially resuming an upward trend. It is distinct from a bear market, which signifies a more prolonged and substantial decline. Such corrections are common in volatile digital asset markets.
