Bitcoin Liquidity Blocks Reveal Insights: Why the $96,000-$111,000 Range Matters Most
While Bitcoin continues to trade above the $100,000 mark, the last 24 hours have seen a drop of 2.5%. According to data from Coinglass, this downturn has resulted in the liquidation of $65.47 million in positions, predominantly affecting long positions, which accounted for $54.10 million of the total.
Crypto analyst Kevin (Kev_Capital_TA) has identified a crucial price range between $96,000 and $111,000, referring to it as a significant area on Bitcoin’s liquidation heatmap. This zone may influence the market’s upcoming direction after a prolonged period of oscillating trading within these values.
Key Levels Illustrated by Bitcoin’s Liquidity Heatmap
In Kevin’s recent analysis shared on social media platform X, he points out that significant liquidity blocks exist between $96,000 and $111,000, forming an essential area for Bitcoin traders to monitor closely.
Liquidity heatmaps depict regions where buying and selling orders accumulate, indicating potential reversal or breakout points. The abundance of liquidity in this range signals that the market might face increased volatility as Bitcoin nears these levels, possibly ensnaring inexperienced investors in the evolving price dynamics.
The liquidity zones within this range are marked in green on the Bitcoin price chart below. These green areas represent high-activity markets that tend to attract price fluctuations. Notably, the largest liquidity cluster is found near $109,700, just above Bitcoin’s most recent all-time high of $108,786, reached only three days prior. The proximity to this all-time high indicates that Bitcoin may experience significant price movement as it approaches this level, with many market participants placing orders around $109,700.
Breaking Free from Extended Sideways Trading
Kevin also emphasized Bitcoin’s prolonged phase of sideways trading, which has tested many investors’ patience. He noted that Bitcoin lingered in this sideways trend for eight months toward the end of 2024 before a brief price surge led back to another three-month stretch of minimal volatility.
Since that time, bullish momentum has not yet materialized again. While long-term holders might still benefit, short-term traders are facing the brunt of stagnant progress in Bitcoin’s price.
To reignite bullish momentum, Bitcoin must first break above the upper limit of the liquidation zone at $110,000.
If Bitcoin breaches this range, it could instigate a substantial rally or a sell-off contingent on the existing market sentiment and activity within that zone.
However, the lack of liquidity beyond these price levels also creates potential risks, particularly beneath the lower boundary of the zone. Insufficient liquidity below means there isn’t enough support to withstand a price breakdown.
As of the latest update, Bitcoin is trading at $102,200, reflecting a decline of 2.8% over the last 24 hours.
