The heatmap provides a visual representation of where "liquidity clusters" (stop-losses and liquidation prices) are sitting:
Upper Liquidity (Resistance): There is a bright yellow band—indicating extremely high liquidation density—at approximately $101,500. Another significant cluster sits around $99,000. These act as "magnets" that price often chases to flush out Short positions.
Lower Liquidity (Support): Bright bands are visible at $93,000 and deeper at $90,000. These represent the liquidation zones for Long positions.
Recent Price Action: The candle chart shows BTC recently bounced strongly from the $90,000 sub-level, climbing toward the $96,000 - $97,000 range.
2. Weekly Market Summary (Jan 8 – Jan 15, 2026)
Bitcoin has experienced a "rollercoaster" week characterized by high volatility:
Early Week (Jan 8 - 12): Selling pressure dominated as the Fear & Greed Index dipped into "Fear" (around 28). BTC retraced toward $89,000 due to net outflows from Spot ETFs and macroeconomic uncertainty.
Mid-to-Late Week (Jan 13 - 15): A sharp reversal occurred. As of today, Bitcoin is trading near $96,800, marking a recovery of over 10% from the weekly low.
Sentiment Shift: The market sentiment has rapidly pivoted from "Fear" back to "Greed" as bulls regain control of the $95k level.
3. Short-Term Forecast & Scenarios
Looking at the liquidity map, two primary scenarios are likely for the coming days:
Scenario 1: The "Blow-off Top" Run: If ETF inflows remain steady, Bitcoin is highly likely to push toward the $99,000 - $100,000 psychological barrier. The ultimate target for this move is the massive liquidity pool at $101,500 shown on your map.
Scenario 2: The "Liquidity Sweep" (Correction): Because the market has turned "Greedy," a "long squeeze" is a risk. Price could dip back to the $93,000 or even $90,000 support zones to "clear the board" of over-leveraged long positions before continuing its upward trajectory.
