Bitcoin (BTC) has recently seen a pullback, dropping to $87,500 at the time of writing, after touching a high of a little over $90,000.
This dip comes after a bullish streak spurred by positive market sentiment and the U.S. election results, but analysts now anticipate a correction ahead of the November 13 Consumer Price Index (CPI) report.
Market analysts warn that this influx of crypto investment could hint at a short-term pullback, with CPI data potentially adding to downward pressure.
Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MNConsultancy, predicts Bitcoin may retrace about 10% before the CPI release.
He expects the price could drop to the 38.2% Fibonacci level, possibly reaching between $75,669 and $81,193, with support around $66,729 and liquidity at $64,130. Van de Poppe views this correction as a healthy pause before Bitcoin’s continued rally.

The sweet spot is having a 10% correction towards the CME gap before we continue.

Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) also highlighted the possibility of volatility near Bitcoin’s all-time highs last week.
Bitcoin’s technical indicators suggest overbought conditions. Trading above its upper Bollinger Band and with an RSI of 75.20 (above the typical 70 threshold for overbought status), the asset may face downward pressure soon.n.
A new analysis from crypto services firm Matrixport suggests that Bitcoin’s current rally is being powered by strong spot market interest rather than high-risk speculation, marking a shift toward more stable market dynamics.
