XRP Price Rebounds From Lows as Bulls Push Recovery Toward Key Levels

Bitcoin continues to trade below $90,000, struggling to recover after several 
days of heavy selling and aggressive long liquidations. Sellers keep pushing 
price lower, and bulls fail to reclaim momentum, creating a market environment 
filled with uncertainty and fear. Every attempt to bounce meets immediate 
resistance, showing how much control bears currently hold. Related Reading:

Level Data shared by Axel Adler shows a clear shift in derivatives pressure 
toward buyers. The liquidation dominance oscillator now sits at 32%, one of 
its highest readings in recent years. This level signals that leveraged bulls 
keep taking the majority of the damage, with long positions consistently wiped 
out as volatility rises. Instead of absorbing the drawdown, many traders 
continue to unwind or get forced out of their positions. These repeated long 
liquidations fuel deeper downside moves and block any meaningful recovery 
attempts. The market now watches closely to see whether this wave of forced 
selling will continue dragging Bitcoin lower or if the pressure is finally 
reaching exhaustion. Long Liquidations Dominate as Bitcoin Faces Renewed 
Downside Pressure Adler explains that the liquidation dominance oscillator 
measures the ratio between long and short liquidations across the derivatives 
market. When the indicator prints positive values, shown as green bars, long 
positions take the bulk of the damage. Negative values reflect a dominance of 
short liquidations. Bitcoin’s current reading of 32% stands out as one of the 
highest levels seen in the last three years, highlighting how aggressively 
bulls have been forced out during this correction. November illustrates this 
perfectly. The market saw three separate waves of long liquidations, each 
exceeding $400 million. Every one of those spikes aligned with a sharp 
acceleration in Bitcoin’s price decline, reinforcing how leveraged buyers 
repeatedly amplified downside momentum. Rather than stabilizing the market, 
each flush created more selling pressure and triggered deeper unwinding across 
futures platforms. The most recent liquidation wave reached $221 million, 
hitting the market right as Bitcoin attempted a short-term recovery. That 
flush immediately reversed the bounce and dragged BTC back down to the $86,000 
region, erasing nearly all of last week’s gains. The persistent dominance of 
long liquidations shows that bulls remain under heavy stress—and until this 
dynamic eases, Bitcoin will struggle to build sustainable upside. Related

ETH To Binance Bitcoin Market Searches for a Higher Time-Frame Floor Bitcoin’s 
weekly chart shows the market pressing into a critical support zone after 
weeks of heavy selling. The price has dropped from the $115,000 region to the 
$86,000–$88,000 range, where it now interacts directly with the 100 SMA. This 
moving average has served as a key structural support in previous cycles, and 
Bitcoin’s current test of it will likely determine whether the broader uptrend 
holds or breaks down further. The recent candles highlight intense volatility. 
Bitcoin briefly dipped to nearly $84,000 before buyers stepped in, forming a 
lower wick that shows early attempts to defend this level. However, the 
rebound remains shallow, and the 50 SMA continues to slope downward — a sign 
that short- and mid-term momentum still favors sellers. For bulls to regain 
control, BTC needs to reclaim $95,000 on a weekly closing basis. Related

These Levels Volume adds weight to the bearish pressure. Selling spikes 
dominate recent weeks, revealing a mix of forced liquidations and fear-driven 
exits rather than healthy profit-taking. As long as BTC trades below the 50 
SMA, the market remains vulnerable to deeper retracements. If the 100 SMA 
fails to hold, the next major liquidity zone sits near $70,000–$72,000, 
aligning with previous consolidation and the long-term 200 SMA. The next 
weekly close will be decisive. Featured image from ChatGPT, chart from
