Current Situation in the Crypto Market: An Analysis of Recent Developments!

The past few days have been extremely challenging for many altcoin holders. While Bitcoin remained relatively stable, altcoins experienced a significant price decline of an average of 20%. This downturn was primarily derivative-driven and characterized by an abrupt, flush-like correction.

Characteristics of the Recent Market Crash

The price decline began over the weekend and intensified throughout Monday. Bitcoin, which was trading above $100,000 at the beginning of the day, rapidly fell to around $95,000. This decline led to the liquidation of more than $750 million in leveraged derivative positions, with the majority affecting bullish positions.

Market Analysis and Outlook

Our Investment Strategy

Given the current market situation, we have invested heavily in the following assets:

Short-term Forecast

Our current assessment is that we could see another upward movement in the short term, followed by a final lower low. However, it’s important to emphasize that we are already well-positioned. If no further low forms, this would also be acceptable.

Risk Assessment

At present, we are no longer in “Up Only” mode, at least in the short term. Therefore, the use of leverage is currently associated with increased risks and should be approached with caution.

Conclusion

The crypto market is going through a consolidation phase, which is typical for bull markets. While short-term volatility and corrections are to be expected, the long-term trend remains positive. Investors should adapt their strategies to the current market dynamics and carefully weigh risks.
