Prominent Trader: Bitcoin Faces Key CME Gap at $84,000, Short-Term Recovery Unlikely
BlockBeats News, April 16th, Famous trader Killa (@KillaXBT) stated that Bitcoin has a CME exhaustion gap near $84,000, just before the waterfall drop. This gap is similar to two other gaps in 2022, which took 290 days and over 500 days to fill, respectively.
Killa believes the current Bitcoin trend closely resembles the 2022 pattern, suggesting that the $84,000 gap may be difficult to fill in the short term. Therefore, a local top may be closer than the $80,000 target that most people expect. He reminds traders that chasing highs in the current market may face downward pressure rather than a quick rebound.
In a previous update, Killa announced that he had shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 with a stop-loss at $80,000.
Killa, as a BTC-focused quantitative trader, had predicted the peak of this bull market in May 2025 and has over 180,000 followers on the X platform.
