Trader Notes: With Bitcoin prices dropping, crypto trader Jelle stated that whether there is volatility or not, "Tuesdays are for taking profit." He revealed reducing his crypto exposure by 1.4% today and predicts higher prices and "simply continue to scale out on the way up."

In another tweet, he compared the current price action below $100,000 to the one below $20,000 in 2020.

He believes that currently the market is in the second half of that structure and is curious "if it plays out the same."

Providing a optimistic outlook, crypto trader Ali Martinez predicts Bitcoin to reach $275,000 based on a technical pattern.

Analytics firm Santiment noted that Bitcoin dropped to as low as $94,200 on Tuesday, sparking fear and uncertainty among traders, with some predicting a further decline to $80,000-$89,000.

This widespread pessimism may be a bullish signal, as market prices often move contrary to crowd expectations, suggesting fear could precede a rebound.
