Every position liquidation is a market order that pushes the price further down the price path. Exchanges liquidated $50 million worth of long positions in an hour? That's $50 million in market selling, accelerating the decline. The cascade works like a snowball: the first wave knocks out stops, the second finishes off those who ran out of margin. And the third forms a reversal zone because the pressure has subsided.
The key signal is which side is losing more. If long positions amounted to 72.7% of the volume of positions forcibly closed within 24 hours, which means the market INJ It fell and drove out leveraged buyers. After a massive squeeze on one side, a reversal often occurs—all the "weak" capital is already out of the market, and the pressure eases.
Interpreting position liquidation data
Mass liquidations of long positions
The sharp price drop wiped out long positions. The cascade accelerates the downward movement. But after long positions are completely squeezed out, a local bottom often forms—the selling pressure is exhausted, leaving only traders with ample margin.
Mass liquidation of short positions
A short squeeze is when a price rise forces short position holders to close with market orders, which further accelerates the upward movement. This typically occurs after a breakout of a key resistance level or unexpected positive news.
Few position liquidations + high OI
The market is calm, but many positions have accumulated. It's the calm before the storm—open interest will sooner or later turn into a cascade. Be careful with leverage during such periods.
Equal liquidations of long and short positions
Forced closures of long and short positions are roughly equal—the market is in a sideways, volatile trend. Both sides are taking hits. A typical consolidation before a directional momentum.
