2017 BTC correction

The fourth and final BTC correction was more of a flash crash. It lasted for only four days, however the price decreased by 30%.  Afterwards, it continued to increase until it reached a then all-time high of $19,764 on Dec. 17, 2017.

All in all, the corrections lasted between 13-34 days (excluding the flash crash) and had a magnitude between 32.57-39.54%.
