Bitcoin (BTC) liquidations explained
Bitcoin (BTC) is one of the most traded coins in crypto, and its perpetual futures carry huge open interest. Large BTC liquidation clusters regularly act as short-term price targets.
How to read the BTC liquidation heatmap
Every bar is a price level where a large amount of leveraged BTC positions would be liquidated. The longer the bar, the more money sits there.
- Green bars above price are BTC short liquidations. If Bitcoin rises into them, shorts are forced to buy – that can push the price up faster.
- Red bars below price are BTC long liquidations. If Bitcoin falls into them, longs are forced to sell – that can accelerate a drop.
- The gold line is the current BTC price.
Why traders watch BTC liquidation magnets
Large liquidation clusters attract price because they hold a lot of liquidity. Once a BTC cluster is hit, the forced orders can cause a quick spike or wick – after that the level is usually "used up". Many traders use the nearest big cluster above and below as short-term targets and as zones where volatility can jump.
FAQ
What is a Bitcoin liquidation heatmap?
It shows the price levels where many leveraged BTC futures positions would be force-closed. Short liquidations sit above the BTC price, long liquidations below it. The bigger the bar, the more positions are stacked there.
Where are the biggest BTC liquidations right now?
The heatmap on this page updates every minute. The two cards on the right show the nearest large BTC liquidation cluster above the price (shorts) and below it (longs), with their distance and estimated size.
Why do liquidation levels act like magnets?
When price reaches a large cluster, forced buying (shorts) or forced selling (longs) kicks in and can accelerate the move. Traders watch these levels as likely targets and as zones of higher volatility.
How is this heatmap calculated?
MMTC Pulse estimates BTC liquidation clusters from Binance Futures price candles and open-interest changes over the last 21 days, combined with common leverage levels. It is a model estimate, not the exchange's real order book.
Can I get an alert when BTC gets close to a liquidation level?
Yes. The free MMTC Pulse iPhone app sends a push notification when BTC gets within 0.8 % of a liquidation magnet and when a magnet gets hit – no account needed.
