Bitcoin Technical Analysis: Bitcoin Sells Hard on Silvergate Bank News
With rumors of crypto-friendly Silvergate Bank going bankrupt, Bitcoin faced a hard sell and quickly turned its direction down. This decline has resulted in millions of dollars of liquidity from investors in a long position in the futures market. According to the news of the crypto data platform Glassnode, over $ 62 million long positions were liquidated in just one hour yesterday evening. In addition, it was observed that Bitcoin futures trading shorts of just over $ 500 thousand were liquidated.
Liquidation occurs when the market moves against the investor’s long or short position, and there are insufficient funds to keep the leveraged position open. High leverage increases this risk.
Bitcoin, which had a relatively quiet day yesterday, closed at $ 23465 with a decrease of 0.69%.
Bitcoin, where sales suddenly harden with the new day, which started today at $ 23465, is trading at $ 22409 with a decrease of 4.50% at the time of writing.
Bitcoin Chart Analysis
Things have turned upside down in Bitcoin, which saw its peak value of August 2022, which is $ 25211, and made its investors happy. It continues to upset Bitcoin investors who could not try and break the 25211 resistance point last week. Bitcoin, which fell to the EMA55 level with the hard selling experienced yesterday, has encountered support at this level for the time being. If the downtrend continues, $22204 (EMA55), $21769 (EMA200), and $21205 (EMA100) are the support levels I will follow. If it turns upwards, I will follow $23124, which is EMA5, and $23316, which is EMA21, are the resistance points.
