Good evening everyone. Today’s Bitcoin market is quite interesting; let’s analyze it carefully.

The current price is hovering around 91,366, with bulls and bears constantly battling around this important psychological level of 90,000 USD. Looking at the liquidation strength distribution, there’s a lot of information.

Upward, the range from 92,800 to 93,300 has accumulated 387 BTC in short liquidation strength. What does this mean? Once the price strongly rebounds and breaks through this area, it will trigger a large number of stop-losses from short positions, causing a rush of liquidations and a stampede-like surge, potentially pushing the price rapidly higher. This is what’s called a short squeeze effect.

Downward, at the same 92,800 level, there is also a dense 375 BTC in long liquidation strength. The situation is reversed: if the price cannot hold support and falls below, longs will face chain liquidations, and the market will accelerate downward.

Therefore, the 92,800-93,300 price zone is tonight’s critical line of life and death. Both bulls and bears are amassing ammunition here, and the price is stuck in the middle, caught between a rock and a hard place.

Why is this happening? Ultimately, it’s a matter of market sentiment. Previous policy fluctuations have made everyone a bit nervous, and expectations for 100,000 USD remain high. During the US stock market closure, this sentiment was suppressed. When the US stock market opens tonight, and global liquidity flows back in, that will be the real test.

In terms of trading strategy, there’s no need to guess short-term direction. The key is how the price performs in front of this liquidation “powder keg” at 92,800-93,300. If bullish sentiment is suppressed by policies and there’s pressure from liquidations above, then shorting in this zone becomes more attractive. In the short term, high-level short positions are indeed more prudent.

But one thing to remember: the more critical the level, the more intense the volatility, and stop-loss settings must keep pace. Both sides could be wrong, so protecting your capital is the top priority.

Simply put: the more turbulent the market, the more tempting the opportunities, but the risks are also greater. Tonight’s key points are to watch the US stock market opening and the performance around 92,800.

92800 this threshold feels like it's about to be broken through --- Another night stuck in a liquidation powder keg, the casino vibe is getting stronger --- Basically, it's just waiting for the US stock market to open so that both bulls and bears have to reveal their hands --- I'm really worried that I can't keep up with stop-losses; this is the easiest position to get wiped out --- 100,000 is still a dream; let's get through this first --- Short positions at high levels are indeed tempting, but I got stopped out last time doing the same --- A short position of 387 BTC waiting to be crushed, just hearing about it is exciting --- The more critical the position, the greater the volatility, that's no lie; that's how I lost my account --- Protecting the principal is the most important thing; I learned this lesson the hard way --- Once the US stock market opens, you'll know what's going on; guessing now is pointless --- Policy suppression of the bulls also exposes the bears' dead end; no one will have it easy

Damn, 92800 is really a powder keg, both bulls and bears are holding on tightly. The US stock market opening is probably going to be problematic. Looks like I'm going to be proven wrong again. The $100,000 dream hasn't woken up yet, haha. Short positions at high levels sound tempting, but if the stop-loss isn't set properly, it's over. The mental state issue is right; it's been too exhausting during this period. Once the short squeeze effect is triggered, the scene will be disastrous. It's really just waiting for the US stocks; everything else is easy to say. The liquidation intensity is so evenly distributed, truly a contest of strength. Protecting the principal is the most important thing, I've learned that.

92800 this level is really stuck, once the US stock market opens, it will definitely explode Hey, this wave of squeezing out the short has some logic, but I’m more afraid that the bulls will suddenly surge Wow, such high participation, tonight is definitely going to be turbulent The number 100,000 is so addictive, no wonder the market is so conflicted To be honest, high-position short orders sound safe but are actually the easiest to reverse, I’d better stay on the sidelines The term "liquidation powder keg" is used perfectly, it feels like it’s about to blow up The US stock market opening is the real watershed, it’s still too early to say anything now

That 92,800 level, we really have to see how the US stock market performs. Wait, 387 BTC short positions piled up here, that’s really intense. Honestly, I never chase short-term positions at this level; it’s easy to get caught out. If the bulls really can’t break through 93,300, then a drop is imminent. When policy fluctuations occur, retail investors are the first to suffer; setting stop-losses properly is really crucial. This 90,000 threshold, repeatedly tugging back and forth, is so annoying. The real show starts when the US stock market opens. Both sides are fully armed, ready to trigger at any moment. I’ve seen too many squeeze effects; in the end, it just washes out some traders. Protecting your principal is really something you should listen to. High Risk High Reward, but I care more about not losing money. If 92,800 breaks, we’ll talk again; right now, everything is uncertain.

92800 this line really is cutting it close, both sides are holding their breath Wait, will the US stock market really crash at open? I can't gamble anymore Short positions sound cost-effective, but I always feel like they'll be pulled in the opposite direction How should I set the stop loss? The volatility this time is too intense, feeling a bit anxious Will 100,000 USD really come? It feels a bit mysterious Stuck around 91,000 for so long, it has to move in one direction or the other I just want to know, with such dense liquidation points, are the main players real?
