Just saw this liquidation heatmap, and I noticed something from those two pillars — the market has revealed its hand once again.



Let's break down the data: when it drops below 91,000, over 5.08 billion in longs are instantly liquidated; when it breaks above 93,000, 2.56 billion in shorts are collectively wiped out. This isn't some mystical prediction; it's a story written on the blockchain long ago. The key point is that the liquidation intensity chart is essentially a deep scan of the market structure — the longs piled above 91,000 are fundamentally retail traders chasing the high; while the shorts above 93,000 are the bears' last stand to defend this wave of price action.

My judgment is quite straightforward:

The short-term trap is clearly at 91,000. If the big players want to shake out the market, 99% of the time they'll "poke" through here to trigger panic and harvest liquidity. But I will keep a close eye on the large wallet accumulation — these numbers don't lie. Breaking above 93,000 signals a bear trap. Once volume confirms support, the capital from closing those 2.56 billion in shorts will act like flames heating a balloon, pushing the price above 96,000.

Why am I so confident? Looking at three dimensions.

On-chain: The perpetual contract funding rate has surged to 0.05% in the last 24 hours, indicating that the bulls are overly heated, and the market needs a wave of liquidations to cool down — this is actually a sign of a healthy bull market, no need to fear. Microstructure-wise, the narrow range between 91,000 and 93,000 has accumulated the densest liquidity in three months. The longer the price spends here, the more explosive the breakout will be.

My trading plan is divided into three timeframes:

If it really pokes through 91,000, I will go long in the 89,500 to 90,000 range, with a stop-loss at 88,800. When it breaks above 93,300, there's no need to wait — chase immediately, targeting the 96,000 to 98,000 range. If the price lingers and oscillates here, patiently wait until the weekly closes above 92,000 before adding to positions from the right side.

In a bull market, the liquidation wave isn't actually risk; it's an obvious money-making opportunity — provided you know where the powder keg is buried and when to light the fuse. The market plays the same tricks: turning most people's stop-losses into the profits of the minority. This round, we aim to be the ones collecting the money. Stay patient and wait for the right opportunity.

What are you talking about, the story of 91,000 and 93,000 again? Every time you speak so confidently, but last time's prediction didn't turn out to be much.

91,000 at this level is really a trap; the main players are too experienced.

9.1万那根针,这次是真的假的?看好戏 --- Wait, is a 0.05 fee really still healthy? Why do I feel a bit hot? --- Retail investors insisting on chasing highs will eventually be awakened by this powder keg. --- The strategy of adding positions on the right side sounds simple, but in practice, it's hellishly difficult. --- Can two candlesticks tell a story? I feel like the market isn't that honest. --- The range from 9.6 to 9.8 is indeed tempting, but only if you can survive until then. --- Stop loss at 8.88, once triggered, it's a slaughter fest—just thinking about it hurts. --- So in the end, it's still about betting on the main force's intentions; luck plays too big a role.

It's the same trick with 9.1 and 9.3 again; retail investors are really easy to be brainwashed by this framework.

Is this the same "market clairvoyance" routine again? Get ready to get pierced, buddy. --- 91,000 really broke my live stream screen, stop with these tricks. --- Staring at on-chain data every day, might as well check your account balance. --- I heard this analysis last year, don’t you have a clue how it turned out? --- Laughing to death, once again the old tune that a liquidation wave is an opportunity, most people died at 9.1. --- A fee rate of 0.05% claiming it's a healthy bull market? Brother, that logic is a bit shaky. --- Stop-loss at 8.88? I bet you can't even set it properly. --- Being the one collecting money... the premise is to stay alive until that day. --- The three timeframes are arranged very meticulously, but there's no plan for a margin call. --- Adding positions on the right side sounds easy, but when losing money, it’s still a left-side move.

It's the same old story, 91,000 for the dip, 93,000 to break through... I've heard it too many times, but what’s the result? Bro, your analysis across these three dimensions is not wrong, but when it comes to the market, plans can’t keep up with changes. Yesterday, you still said to hold firm at 92,000, and today it suddenly plunged to 88,000. But to be fair, your logical chain is indeed tight, especially the part about the funding rate—honestly, this is one of the few reliable analyses I've seen. Just... should we wait for the weekly confirmation before taking action?
