High liquidation volume indicates excessive leverage, which often precedes strong price swings.
Ethereum’s large liquidation event suggests it played a key role in driving overall market volatility.
📈 Research Insight
If this trend continues:
The market may experience a short-term bullish momentum (short squeeze effect).
However, elevated liquidations also increase the risk of sharp pullbacks due to unstable leverage.
