A death cross is defined as: when the 50 day moving average drops below the 200 day moving average.

Based on history going back to 2014, after entering a death cross BTC prices dropped as follows before recovering, prices and percentages are slightly approximate but fairly accurate:

Average post death cross drawdown percentage using history back to 03 Sep '14 is -33.46%.

Using the average drawdown percentage would the upcoming post death cross drawdown price at 29131.21 USD, using the current price of BTC in USD as I write this. There is also a support line at 29641 extending back to Jan '21.

The Math:
33.46% of 43780 is 14648.79
43780 - 14648.79 = 29131.21

Conclusion:
A more mild drawdown say using the 25 Mar '20 drawdown percentage of -15.9% (6961.02) would put the upcoming post death cross drawdown of BTC to 36818.98 USD. The upcoming post death cross drawdown price of sub 40k seems likely.
