Bitcoin just closed right at the EMA10 level, sitting nicely above the SMA20—pretty solid structure if you ask me. But here's the thing: there's this CME gap hanging around $89.4k that's begging to get filled.



Wouldn't be surprised if we see a quick dip to tag that gap, potentially even dropping to $88.7k to flush out overleveraged longs. Honestly? That kind of move would actually be healthy. Clears out the weak hands, resets the positioning, and removes a chunk of that downside risk everyone's been worried about.

Sometimes the best rally starts after shaking out the tourists, you know?

lol "solid structure" until it isn't—seen this exact setup before the 2021 dump. gap fills are textbook, sure, but let's examine what actually happens to liquidations here... the math on these leverage positions doesn't check out when you trace the wallet patterns

That 88.7k level really needs to fill a gap; a good shakeout actually makes things more stable. Retail investors keep getting trapped, so clearing them out actually makes it easier.

According to my quantitative model analysis, this pullback to 8.87k is actually giving retail investors a chance to get in. Don't be scared by short-term fluctuations.

From a technical perspective, the 89.4k CME gap theory does exist, but I’m more concerned about the actual current leverage data—research shows that the real shakeouts of weak hands often happen within a 5% range, so we need to question whether the 88.7k level is overly pessimistic. It’s worth noting that, historically, similar arguments about a “healthy correction” have often become excuses for bag holders.

I've been wanting to fill that 89.4k gap for a long time, just needed an excuse. When the time comes, those leveraged traders will be crying their eyes out again.
