Understanding Liquidations
Liquidations occur when a trader's position is forcibly closed because they can no longer meet margin requirements. Large liquidation events can cause cascading price movements.
Long Liquidations: Occur when price drops, forcing long positions to close (selling pressure)
Short Liquidations: Occur when price rises, forcing short positions to close (buying pressure)
Hotspots Explained
Liquidation hotspots show price levels where large amounts of leveraged positions are concentrated. When price approaches these levels, expect increased volatility as positions get liquidated.
