short squeeze expectation
Despite the significant correction that took place last week, as we reported on Kriptokoin.com, Bitcoin (BTC) bulls, 2021 bulls managed to get back into the $30,000 zone, which has been defended many times throughout the market. Traders drew attention to various metrics as the price struggled to recover against multiple headwinds. Data for derivatives traders was provided by Coinalyze, a cryptocurrency analysis platform that evaluates Bitcoin long and short positions for BTC/USD perpetual contracts on ByBit.
As shown in the lower half of the above chart, short positions (shorts) in red increased during the recent market decline, suggesting that derivatives traders are expecting further declines in the short term. “Market sentiment has been very negative over the past few days, as seen by the ByBit long/short position ratio and funding rate,” said Gabriel Dodan, founder of Coinalyze. A short squeeze is expected,” he said.
A short-term rise to $35,000 is expected for Bitcoin
According to David Lifchitz, managing partner and chief investment officer of ExoAlpha, Bitcoin’s drop to $26,716 on May 12, May 2021 It was notable as it dropped below $28,600, the . In Lifchitz’s view, the rebound seen on May 13 was expected because of “a lot of bad news emerged” and “the panic that resulted from the IHR debacle”. According to Lifchitz, “with a tight stance this point could be a good entry point if the cleanup continues” for Bitcoin, which is standing at May 2021 lows.
However, traders should not expect an overnight return to $60,000 and instead set a more modest short-term target. A target of $35,000 is reasonable, according to the analyst. Lifchitz used the following statements:
Long position: $28.5k / Stop level: $26.5k / Profit target: $34.5k, ie $6,000 up / $2k down = 3/1 gain- From a loss rate and investment standpoint, it looks attractive to me.
Can a V-shaped improvement be seen?
Analysis on what it would take for Bitcoin to regain its bullish momentum was provided by market analyst “Rekt Capital”. While many optimistic traders were hoping for a quick recovery from this latest setback, Rekt Capital warned that “by the standards of history, a sharp V-Shaped rebound that will mark a generational low is less likely.” “Many are anticipating a rebound as the previous March 2020 BTC bear market bottom was so volatile. But the macro price history shows that extended ranges are more likely.”
