Bitcoin price fluctuations will impact the market liquidation pattern. Breaking through $92,000 will trigger strong liquidations, potentially reaching $115 million; dropping to $89,000 will result in a liquidation strength of $94.4 million. Traders should monitor these two key levels to assess future volatility.

【Blockchain Rhythm】According to the latest data from Coinglass, Bitcoin’s price fluctuations will directly impact the market liquidation landscape.

The upward push is quite clear—if Bitcoin breaks through $92,000, the cumulative short liquidation strength on mainstream CEX platforms will surge to $1.15 billion. In other words, once the short positions are wiped out, this level will trigger a wave of liquidity shocks.

Conversely, if the price drops below $89,000, the accumulated long liquidation strength will reach $944 million. Long traders should pay special attention to this support level.

But here’s a key point— the liquidation chart does not show the exact number of contracts or the specific amount liquidated, but instead uses the height of the bars to reflect the strength of each liquidation cluster relative to its surrounding clusters. Simply put, it measures how much the price will be affected when it reaches a certain level.

The taller the bar, the more intense the impact on the price when it hits that level, due to the wave of liquidity. This concept of “liquidation strength” is very important for traders—it can help you judge what kind of volatility a certain price level might experience.

So, in short, the key levels at $92,000 and $89,000 are now areas to watch closely.

Between 92,000 and 89,000, it's trapped in the middle. Feels like any movement could easily get harvested.

You really need to keep a close eye on the 92,000 and 89,000 levels; it feels like someone could get liquidated at any moment.

Positions 9.2 and 8.9 really can't hold anymore—one is a short squeeze machine, and the other is a long jump machine. Be very careful with these three thousand yuan in the middle.
