Analyst: BTC faces $1.6B in liquidations if it breaks below $58K

A drop below $58,000 for BTC could trigger the liquidation of $1.6 billion in long positions, according to on-chain analyst Reflection. The analyst stated that in his entire trading career, he has never seen such a concentration of long position liquidity in a single range. He explained that if the price falls below the $58,000 mark, more than $1.6 billion in long positions will be liquidated, potentially wiping out all the traders who had called a market bottom. However, Reflection added that the best time to buy is not when the market appears safe, but precisely in moments that seem most painful. He argued that once all the liquidity is exhausted, there is no significant selling pressure left, and that all past market bottoms have been formed in this manner.
