There is a possibility that if Bitcoin (BTC) breaks above $124,000, short positions totaling about $898,000,000 could be liquidated on major centralized exchanges (CEX).

On the 4th, according to crypto-specialized media BlockBeats, on-chain data platform Coinglass analyzed that when Bitcoin exceeds $124,000, the cumulative short liquidation intensity would reach $898,000,000. Conversely, if the price breaks below $121,000, the cumulative long position liquidation intensity is expected to reach $1,106,000,000.

Meanwhile, the liquidation map is not an indicator that directly shows actual liquidation amounts, but rather relatively indicates how much liquidation pressure appears at specific price levels. Generally, the higher the liquidation intensity in a given range, the more likely market liquidity will shift sharply and price volatility will increase when that price is reached.
