As of January 13, 2026, Bitcoin is trading in a high-stakes consolidation zone. The liquidation heatmap currently shows significant clusters that are acting as "magnets" for price action.
Current Liquidation Clusters
Based on recent market data, the following levels are the most concentrated "hot zones":
Upper Resistance (Short Liquidations): A massive cluster of approximately $1.5 billion in short positions is sitting at the $95,000 mark. If Bitcoin breaks upward, this could trigger a "short squeeze," rapidly pushing the price toward $100,000+.
Lower Support (Long Liquidations): On the downside, there is a significant build-up near $90,000. A drop below this psychological support could trigger a cascade of long liquidations, potentially dragging the price toward the $85,000 demand zone.
Immediate Pivot: The price is currently hovering around $90,500, which serves as the immediate 100-day EMA support.
