The Bitcoin price is struggling to recover from recent declines, as the market downtrend has kept it significantly below the $100,000 mark. Amidst this volatility, Bitcoin is experiencing a bearish deviation that is filling a new Chicago Mercantile (CME) Gap. This has triggered a fresh prediction from a crypto analyst who believes that the pioneer cryptocurrency is set for a higher high.
Bitcoin Price To Form Higher Low As CME Gap Fills
Crypto analyst Rekt Capital took to X (formerly Twitter) on Monday to share his projected outlook for the Bitcoin price. The analyst highlighted that Bitcoin is currently undergoing a bearish deviation, which is filling a massive gap on the CME futures chart.
CME gaps are disparities between closing and opening prices in the Bitcoin futures market. They appear when Bitcoin’s price moves as the exchanges close over the weekend and reopen on weekdays. Over the past few days, Bitcoin has been filling its new CME gap amidst the broader market downturn. This downward move was expected, as the Bitcoin price often gravitates toward unfilled CME gaps before resuming regular activity.
Despite Bitcoin’s present bearish deviation, Rekt Capital believes that the downtrend could present an opportunity for the market to form new higher lows. The analyst shared two charts, with one revealing several resistance and support zones for the Bitcoin price. The orange and yellow boxes in the chart suggest strong support areas where Bitcoin has historically bounced, while the blue boxes highlight past resistance areas.
In the second chart, Rekt Capital showcases repeated breakout patterns, where BTC consolidates and then initiates a surge. If the cryptocurrency can make the expected higher low above last week’s low, this could confirm that Bitcoin’s broader uptrend may still be intact. Conversely, if it fails to hold above support levels and declines again, the market may see a more resounding crash, potentially triggering sell-offs and exacerbating the bearish trend.
Analyst Foresees A Move Towards $95,000
Not too long ago, Bitcoin shocked the market, skyrocketing by more than 9% in one day and surging back above the $90,000 mark. According to X crypto analyst Jelle, this massive price surge was the higher low the market was anticipating.
The analyst suggests that the surge has paved the way for BTC to build a more solid base and slowly make its way toward the $95,000 mark. While the price of BTC currently trades at $87,596 and faces bearish pressures that have triggered multiple price crashes, Jelle believes that the cryptocurrency can overturn bearish conditions and initiate a recovery.
As of this writing, it appears Bitcoin may be slowly recovering from the bears. The cryptocurrency has surged by 5.3% in one day, and its market capitalization is also up by the same amount despite its declining trading volume.
