According to recent insights from COINOTAG News on January 16th, data from Coinglass indicates significant thresholds for Bitcoin’s price movement. Should Bitcoin exceed the $102,000 mark, the projected cumulative short liquidations across major centralized exchanges (CEXs) could skyrocket to approximately $788 million. Conversely, a decline below $98,000 may trigger cumulative long liquidations reaching an estimated $1.168 billion.

It is imperative to note that the liquidation chart does not provide specific figures regarding the actual contracts that will face liquidation or their exact monetary values. Rather, it illustrates the relative intensity of liquidation clusters in proximity to one another. Hence, a pronounced “liquidation bar” signifies a potentially pronounced price reaction, driven by a liquidity cascade when Bitcoin approaches these critical price levels.
