What to Know:
- A $1,000 gap was created when CME Bitcoin futures opened at $85,160 on Monday, compared to Friday’s close of $84,190.
- Bitcoin typically fills CME gaps, hinting at a possible revisit to the $84,000–$85,000 bracket.
As Bitcoin (BTC) surged over the weekend, reaching a peak of $87,800 on Monday, yet another gap was recorded between the closing price of CME futures on Friday and Monday’s trading opening.
The futures ended last week at $84,190, opening approximately $1,000 higher at $85,160. This trend indicates a likely drop back since Bitcoin has a history of filling these CME futures gaps.
Historically, Bitcoin has often retraced to fill such gaps. Based on this trend, it seems plausible that Bitcoin might revisit the $84,000–$85,000 range soon.
