Bitcoin Price Closes Crucial Gap: Bullish? By U.Today
U.Today – The price of is losing more than 2.5% in the cryptocurrency market during the trading day today, falling below the key $60,000 mark. As it naturally happens, the entire market is also in deep red, with a total loss of almost $100 billion in capitalization and liquidation during the day was subject to positions for double that.
However, amidst the negative market sentiment, a noteworthy event occurred. Today’s price drop allowed BTC to close a gap on the BTC price chart on the CME exchange since June 28.

In financial and cryptocurrency markets, price gaps occur when an asset opens significantly higher or lower than its previous closing price, creating a gap on the chart. These gaps often act as magnets for future price movements, as traders predict that the asset will eventually return to the gap level to “close” it.
The importance of CME gaps for Bitcoin lies in their predictive power, as market participants carefully watch these gaps for potential trading opportunities.
A closing of a downside gap can be seen as a bullish signal for BTC. It indicates that the market has faced an imbalance, potentially paving the way for a price rebound.
While today’s market decline may seem negative at first glance, the closing of the CME gap could suggest a positive outlook for Bitcoin in the near future.
