Currently, the price of bitcoin is consolidating around $120,000. The record-breaking open interest indicates an excessively high level of leverage in the derivatives market. Trader BitBull predicts that bitcoin and altcoins will experience a "large-scale leverage liquidation" within the next 1-2 weeks. He believes that the liquidation will force some traders to sell, but after that, the market will rebound again and reach new highs. Other analysts have differing views. Trader CrypNuevo believes the upside target is around $123,200. Meanwhile, trader Roman points out bearish divergence on both the daily and weekly charts, warning of the risk of weakening momentum.
