The market is sending clear signals.

Looking at the data is straightforward—8.7K and 9K are the two levels pressing down on the market like "bombs." But the strength here doesn't refer to the price itself, rather the force of liquidations.

Below, there are 703 million in long liquidation strength stacked under 8.7K. Think about what this means—any gap down in price will trigger a massive number of stop-loss orders from long positions, causing a wave after wave of panic selling, with the speed of decline being frightening.

In comparison, the short liquidation strength above 9K is 541 million. Although smaller in volume than longs, it shouldn't be taken lightly.

**This is the current situation: the market is trapped in a very narrow liquidity vacuum zone (between 8.7K and 9K), unable to move.**

Even more interesting, on-chain data shows that a large amount of chips have recently been withdrawn from exchanges—smart money is quietly accumulating. They are all waiting—waiting for a clear breakout direction. At this critical juncture, any breakout in either direction could be a trap for both longs and shorts. The main players need liquidity to complete real turnover, so they often move toward the side with greater liquidation strength.

My judgment is this: **a quick downward "shakeout" wave first**, to flush out the less committed longs below 8.7K, possibly dropping instantly to 8.5K or even lower, creating panic lows. After acquiring cheap chips, they will quickly rebound and continue to target the short positions above 9K. It’s a "pre-boost suppression" rhythm.

Opportunities are hidden in this kind of intense volatility.

I have already preset orders for phased entries; I won't disclose the specific levels. Remember one thing: **when others are screaming in liquidation, that’s often your cue to buy the dip**. Stay calm, buckle up. Volatility is not the risk—liquidity is your friend.
