【BlockBeats】On January 7th, according to Coinglass real-time data monitoring, Bitcoin faces varying degrees of liquidation pressure at two key price levels.
If BTC falls below $91,000, long positions on mainstream exchanges will undergo a strong liquidation wave, with the total liquidation strength expected to reach 508 million. Conversely, if Bitcoin breaks through the $93,000 threshold, short holders should prepare for a wave of liquidations with a strength of 256 million.
It is important to note that liquidation strength does not equal the exact number of contracts or the specific amount being liquidated. It reflects the relative importance of each price range near the liquidation zone — essentially, the “impact force.”
In other words, once the price reaches a certain level, the market’s reaction can fluctuate significantly due to changes in liquidity structure. The higher the liquidation bar, the more intense the liquidity shock when the price hits that level, caused by a large number of contracts being liquidated simultaneously. This has important implications for short-term traders’ risk management — positions at levels with high liquidation strength are more prone to sharp volatility and require close attention to risk exposure.

Between 9.1 and 9.3, there are so many liquidation orders... You can even feel the pressure in the air.

Positions 9.1 and 9.3 are indeed risky, with both bulls and bears bleeding on the edge of the knife.

Points 9.1 and 9.3 are really tightly constrained, with 500 million on one side and 250 million on the other—neither side can be comfortable.
