This is a marked reversal from late November 2024, when the index hit a high of 93 amid market euphoria. Massive Liquidations Hit Derivatives Market The price collapse led to a cascade of liquidations across crypto derivatives markets. In 24 hours, exchanges liquidated over 150,000 traders, resulting in closures totaling over $510 million. Long positions suffered the most damage, losing $40.37 million in a single hour and $77 million over four hours. Bitcoin accounted for $41.61 million in long liquidations, followed by Ethereum at $13.99 million. Other cryptocurrencies, such as Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin, also saw multi-million-dollar liquidations as prices followed Bitcoin lower. Liquidation Heatmap. Source: Coinglass Support Levels Set the Path for Recovery Market analyst KillaXBT has pointed out several crucial support zones for Bitcoin’s near-term direction. Immediate focus is on $94,100, with more substantial support anticipated at $93,500—the year’s opening price—and the $89,000-$91,000 range. These areas have traditionally attracted high trading activity and open interest, making them key buy zones based on technical analysis. However, the analyst warned against using high leverage now due to ongoing volatility and liquidation risks. With recent price swings of 4-5%, overleveraged positions face elevated risk. NEW: Bitcoin has officially erased all year-to-date gains for the entirety of 2025. pic.twitter.com/auOwXIHXMd— Autism Capital 里 (@AutismCapital) November 16, 2025 If Bitcoin falls decisively below $85,000, bullish recovery scenarios would be invalidated, signaling a trend reversal. If liquidity is absorbed at lower supports, a move to reclaim the $100,000 mark is possible, though resistance at $98,300 must be overcome first. The current structure points to heightened uncertainty. With sentiment at extreme fear and major liquidations already occurring, the market sits at a critical point. Whether buyers emerge at support or sellers push the price lower will shape Bitcoin’s path through November and year-end trading.
