The cryptocurrency market has experienced severe fluctuations, triggering a large-scale liquidation of contracts. According to Coinglass data, the total liquidation amount reached $248 million, with long positions liquidating at $214 million and short positions at $34.1 million.
Market Review and Analysis
Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) were the main currencies affected, with Bitcoin falling from $93,000 to $89,000 and Ethereum's price dropping from $5,100 to $4,850.
Market Sentiment
The large-scale liquidation has made market sentiment more complex. Some investors believe this is a signal of the end of the bull market, while experienced traders see this as a buying opportunity.
Historical Patterns
Looking back at history, after past large-scale liquidation events, the crypto market typically goes through a period of adjustment, followed by a significant rebound. For example:
- In May 2021, the market liquidation amount reached $1.3 billion, after which Bitcoin rose from $29,000 to $69,000.
- In June 2022, the crypto market experienced a winter, with long position liquidations exceeding $500 million, but six months later Bitcoin returned to the $40,000 level.
Future Trends and Recommendations
Whether this liquidation event indicates the end of the bull market remains to be seen. However, according to historical patterns, when the market experiences a significant pullback and panic sentiment rises, it often nurtures new opportunities.
In the short term, investors are advised to:
1. Operate cautiously: Avoid using high leverage in trading and control risks.
2. Pay attention to support levels: The short-term support level for Bitcoin is $88,500, and for Ethereum, it is $4,800.
3. Build positions in batches: Use a gradual buying strategy to reduce the risks associated with market volatility.
