2 min read

Bitcoin (BTC) took a dive and hit a recent low of $87,800 after dropping to the level of a CME futures gap that was created at the beginning of January, which had not been filled until now.

The move wiped out over $10,000 of the gains made against month-to-date highs, thus turning market sentiment cautious about the strength of the market.

Market Reaction and Analysis

The gap fill has stirred a variety of responses among traders. Some, for instance, the trader CW, are looking forward to a quick rebound because they believe a stable rally is necessary.

On the other side, there are traders like Jelle who are turning more bearish, and the daily chart trendline is serving as a guide, for them, to the next support level. Jelle concluded, “Higher high immediately followed by a lower low, “. “Your CME gap has been filled, and price is once more retesting the trendline, but I think we all agree that this is no longer looking strong.”

Macro Factors and Gold’s Performance

The crypto market is still being influenced by macro factors such as rates, geopolitics, and cross, market volatility. QCP Capital observed that Bitcoin is behaving like a high-beta risk asset, which means it is very sensitive to these factors.

In the meantime, gold has reached an all, time high of $4, 888 an ounce, thereby surpassing Bitcoin in terms of performance. Bitcoin’s price action is currently signalling a cautious stance. Based on the filled CME gap and retest of the trendline, there could be a potential for the price to go down.
