liquidations<\/a> remain negative near \u2212$40 million, underscoring the fact that many overleveraged positions are still being flushed out of the market. This persistent wave of long wipeouts is applying steady downside pressure, preventing BTC from mounting a strong recovery after its recent rejection above $115K.<\/p>\nDespite these pressures, Adler highlights a crucial point: the Liquidation Intensity Z-Score (365d) is at a neutral to moderate level. This signals that while liquidations are forcing traders out of their positions, they are not large enough to trigger a cascading selloff. In other words, the current market drawdown is painful, but it lacks the systemic fuel for a deep liquidation-driven collapse similar to what has occurred during prior cycle tops.<\/p>\n
This distinction is vital for understanding Bitcoin\u2019s current market structure. While headwinds remain as the market forces leveraged traders to reset, the underlying trend shows resilience. Because liquidations aren\u2019t extremely intense, BTC could find stability once it clears out the weak hands.<\/p>\n
Adler notes that the market now sits at a crossroads: continued liquidation pressure could grind prices lower in the short term, but without cascading risk, Bitcoin has the capacity to consolidate and rebuild momentum.<\/p>\n
As fresh capital enters and the market clears out leveraged excess, it may support a healthier, more sustainable advance in the months ahead. In this context, don\u2019t view the correction solely as a bearish signal.\u00a0Instead, it reflects a broader market reset\u2014necessary for removing excess leverage and laying the groundwork for Bitcoin\u2019s next decisive move.<\/p>\n
Price Action Details<\/h2>\n
Bitcoin is trading near $113,025, struggling to reclaim levels above $115K after the recent selloff. The chart shows BTC moving below its 50-day and 100-day moving averages (MAs), both of which now act as resistance around $114,600\u2013$115,000. The 200-day MA, currently near $115,077, reinforces this resistance cluster, signaling that BTC must overcome heavy technical barriers to regain bullish momentum.<\/p>\n
On the downside, BTC found temporary support at $112,900, with buyers stepping in to prevent further losses. If this level fails, the next support lies closer to $110K, which aligns with prior consolidation zones and liquidity pools. A break below could open the door toward $108K, intensifying bearish sentiment.<\/p>\n
Price action also reveals lower highs forming since the rejection near $118K, highlighting fading bullish strength. Still, the broader structure suggests BTC remains in a consolidation phase rather than a complete trend reversal, as long as $110K holds.<\/p>\n
In the short term, traders will be watching if Bitcoin can reclaim the 115K zone, which would signal renewed momentum.<\/p>\n
