<p><a href="https://coinpedia.org/price-prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> experienced a notable setback in the last 24 hours, with its value dropping sharply to around $41,000. On-chain analyst Willy Woo suggests that a retest of the $39,000 zone is likely before any potential bullish continuation.</p> 
<p>Here is a more detailed breakdown of his analysis. </p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bitcoin-s-ups-and-downs">Bitcoin’s Ups and Downs</h2> 
<p>In the dynamic world of Bitcoin, sharp drawdowns are basic to every bull cycle. While BTC has been on an impressive upward trajectory, soaring from $27,000 to nearly $44,000 since October 1. Meanwhile, the current correction shouldn’t have come as a surprise and was due to happen at some point.</p> 
<p>In a recent tweet on X a prominent crypto analyst, Willy Woo points out a trading gap near $39,700 on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) futures market.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Such gaps often occur when an asset’s price opens significantly higher than the last closing price, a phenomenon observed especially over the weekend in traditional financial markets.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Traditionally, these gaps are expected, though not guaranteed, to be filled due to the lack of liquidity in that specific price zone.</p>

<p>Further, Willy Woo presents a balanced analysis of potential outcomes for Bitcoin. In the optimistic scenario, he cites declining interest rates, a peak in the US dollar index (DXY), a resurgence in global liquidity, an imminent <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/bitcoin-btc-price-could-reach-100k-with-etf-approval-in-jan-2024-predicts-skybridge-founder/">spot exchange-traded fund (ETF)</a>, robust demand from public companies like MicroStrategy, a decrease in paper Bitcoin, and notable figures recognizing gold’s surge but not Bitcoin’s.</p> 
<p>Conversely, Woo outlines factors that could signal a bearish trend, including a net inflow of coins into exchanges, bearish technical setups, the CME gap at $39,000, diminishing futures demand, and the possibility of significant long liquidations sweeping market lows.</p>

The market cap has also seen a decrease of 0.87%, standing at $818 billion, as per Coinpedia news.</p>
