Bitcoin pauses month-on-month

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Professional and TradingView confirmed that BTC/USD is heading towards $27,700 after briefly surging above $28,000.

The currency pair found resistance below its original highs at the end of the week, and after the opening bell, shares also faltered.

Joy over a viable deal to raise the U.S. debt ceiling, which previously boosted crypto, also faded as market participants awaited the first scrutiny in Congress.

“Bitcoin has had a hard time reclaiming the weekend high,” summarized the observation of useful resource indicators in part of an analysis that day.

“As tomorrow approaches the monthly candle close, bulls and bears are struggling to regulate the momentum.”

Standards trader Daan Crypto Trades emphasized that liquidity represents a genuine interest in BTC and is not part of an order book “spoof”.

Fellow trader Jelle was also optimistic, calling May 31 a likely good date for bulls.

“I quite like how bitcoin is doing here. “But we’re sticking with the important thing and it looks like we’re building a slightly hidden bullish divergence here,” read part of the Twitter comment.

Other contributors included protection against a potential triple bitcoin breakout related to market developments.

#Bitcoin is about to break out of three completely different bullish patterns.

Just a little bigger before they all confirm a bigger transfer.

The CME hole looms large

On the radar, meanwhile, was the looming gap in the CME futures markets and Bitcoin’s potential to “fill” it next.

The weekend’s uptrend left a clean area between $26,900 and $27,850 on the futures chart, suggesting a possible short-term downside target for the spot price.

Standard trader Justin Bennett factored this into the day’s value assessment, suggesting that range-bound habits would continue.

Good bounce from $BTC so far, just as detailed in Monday’s blog post.

That’s your range for now. If we surpass $28,250 then we seem to see a liquidity squeeze towards $29,000 and $30,000.

But if $27,500 fails, expect the CME gap to be filled.#Bitcoin https://t.co/kFabrgykZH pic.twitter.com/U5BnJgzvzm

Fellow trader Mikybull Crypto, meanwhile, took the opportunity to provide an overview of other open CME gaps for the year.

“Caution: gaps are not closed immediately, but one should not ignore them,” he argued.
