BTC still has two CME gaps that need to be filled, located at 88k and 91k respectively. Based on historical data, CME gaps are generally filled within a short period, which has become a fairly reliable market pattern. The gap at 91k has already been filled, and next, we are likely to see the price probe downward to the 88k level to fill the other gap. This type of gap filling behavior is often not only driven by technical needs but also triggers chain reactions—short-term rapid declines can usually trigger market panic, especially causing some aggressive traders to be forced into liquidation. So if this gap filling really happens, don’t be too surprised.

The 88k level probably has to drop, and then the big leek-cutting show will start again.

88k is really coming, and then it will be another round of stop-loss explosions. I've memorized this routine already.

88k, let's see. This wave probably needs to drop. The historical pattern is right there; it's uncomfortable if the gap isn't filled.

If this 88k drops again, it will be a wave of liquidations for a bunch of people.

88k that level is really tense, now it's just a matter of who can hold on.

88k that critical level really needs to be guarded, the historical pattern is right there, and this time it's highly likely we can't escape it either. --- Are we going to test lower again? I bet 5 bucks that the aggressive buddy is about to get cut again. --- CME gaps are damn accurate, they never fail to keep us on edge. --- Once 91k is filled, it should be 88k's turn. The logic makes sense, just worried that panic selling might hit too hard at that time. --- The people who closed their positions probably can't sleep well now, waiting for this wave to come down. --- Not surprised? Bro, if you're not surprised at 88k, then there's something wrong. --- Filling the gap is indeed a necessity, but how to fill it properly is a whole different story.

ngl this "cme gap filling" narrative is getting recycled hard... i've seen this pattern cited as gospel like 47 times already. not saying it's wrong but DYOR before treating it like law, yeah? the panic liquidation angle though—that's the real exploit vector here. classic volatility trap setup imo.
