In recent market conditions, the scale of short liquidations has indeed experienced an extreme release—such a crushing wave of liquidations often hides significant reversal risks.
The core issue observed is that the $BTC market volatility and the magnitude of leveraged liquidations are seriously diverging, and this signal is very critical. When the liquidation intensity exceeds volatility expectations, it usually indicates that market participants' risk exposure has reached a critical point. In this state, chasing longs at the 930 level is essentially gambling, not trading.
The biggest test at this moment is psychological resilience—don't be led by the market. Market sentiment can easily spread, especially when liquidation numbers are jumping. But the rational approach is to stay calm and wait for definitive signals.
Some traders have taken light long positions at 912 and are now planning to exit. More aggressive plans involve building short positions in batches within the 926-932 range, betting on a subsequent reversal. Such opposing actions themselves reflect how divided the market is—and this divergence is often where the risk lies.

930, my friend who bought more, this is really gambling now. With such a strong liquidity scale, I think we should stay calm and wait.

Buying more at 930? Isn't that gambling? With such a fierce liquidation scale, still daring to take the plunge—how strong must your mindset be?

Is it a good idea to go long at the 930 level? I think you didn't clearly see the situation. With such fierce liquidations, who would dare to go against it?

Is it worth chasing long at this position 930? Bro, are you trying to send money? The liquidation numbers are jumping like an ECG. I'm choosing to lie flat and watch the show.

930 going long? Bro, isn't this just a suicide move? With such a strong liquidation wave, how dare you bet on a rebound... I just don't understand.

The line between gambling and trading is just one step away... I entered a long position at 912, and now watching the fluctuating liquidation numbers, I feel like a performance artist.
