Liquidation data indicates that long positions in the cryptocurrency market experienced significant losses, while short liquidations remained minimal.
Dogecoin's network activity is outpacing its price movement, suggesting a potential buying opportunity.
Traders holding long positions in Dogecoin faced liquidations exceeding $5 million between June 3rd and 4th. Conversely, short liquidations remained below $60,000. In the context of derivatives trading, longs are positions predicting price increases, while shorts anticipate price decreases.
Liquidations occur when an exchange involuntarily closes a trader's position due to market volatility, insufficient margin, or excessive leverage.
In Dogecoin's case, liquidations were triggered by recent price volatility. At the time of writing, DOGE is trading at $0.10, representing a 7.28% decline over the past 24 hours. However, this decline mirrors the broader market trend.
A liquidation heatmap identifies price levels where significant liquidations may occur. Analyzing data from Hyblock, we observe a concentration of liquidity around $0.12. If buying pressure intensifies, Dogecoin's price could move towards this level.
Despite the price decline, a positive price-DAA divergence suggests a potential buying opportunity for Dogecoin. DAA measures the number of daily active addresses on the blockchain. A divergence occurs when the price increase outpaces the increase in DAA, typically indicating a sell signal. However, the current price-DAA ratio of -58.32% suggests a trend reversal and an increase in network activity.
While the price may stabilize around $0.10, market participants may accumulate Dogecoin in anticipation of a potential rally towards $0.12.
