Let's chat about a hot topic: over-leveraging in crypto markets. It's like the high-stakes world of poker, but with digital coins. ๐๐ฐ
Ever heard the phrase "Don't bet the farm"? In crypto, this is crucial. Using too much leverage is like trying to run before you can walk. Sure, you might move faster, but you're way more likely to trip and fall. Hard. ๐ฌ
Here's the deal: leverage means you're borrowing money to amplify your trades. Think of it as a booster rocket. It can send your profits to the moon, but if it backfires, you're in for a crash landing. ๐๐ฅ
Now, let's talk liquidation. This is the monster under the bed for traders. When your losses hit a critical point, your position is automatically closed. Poof! Gone. Like a bad magic trick. ๐งโโ๏ธโจ
But fear not! Tools like The Kingfisher are here to be your market GPS. ๐บ๏ธ๐ฐ๏ธ It's not just about showing you where the market's been; it's about illuminating the path ahead, showing you where the pitfalls and treasures are.
With @kingfisher_btc, you're like an explorer with a treasure map. It shows you the "liquidation clusters" - these are the danger zones where a lot of trades could go south quickly. Like spotting quicksand before you step in it. ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ชค
Think of it as your guide through the jungle of crypto trading. By avoiding these danger zones, you can make moves that are calculated, not just a roll of the dice. ๐ฒ๐ซ
And here's the kicker: it's not just about avoiding danger. It's also about spotting opportunities. Like knowing the best place to pan for gold in a rushing river. ๐๏ธ๐
Let's wrap this up: in the wild world of crypto, being informed is your best defense. Tools like @kingfisher_btc don't just help you avoid losing your shirt; they help you dress for success. So gear up, stay sharp, and happy trading! ๐ง ๐ผ๐

GEX for $BTC is neutral around 83900.
This suggests potential for dampening volatility at current levels.
However, moving higher quickly enters a negative GEX zone, signaling increased volatility.

So the chain is now:

That deserves scrutiny.

CoinGlass did not invent the liquidation map.
They aggregated OI, funding, and already printed liquidations from 2019 (Bybt). Useful. Not the same product.
The forward-looking LiqMap โ clusters of where leverage will die โ was public from @kingfisher_btc in 2020.
Proof: โข Kingfisher LiqMap software: Jul 2020; public docs indexed Oct 2020 โข Medium, 20 Dec 2020: LiqMaps as a live product โข Medium, 9 Sep 2021: full LiqMap spec (all_leverage, high_leverage, optical_opti) โข @coinglass_com, 5 Jul 2023: โNew features โ Liquidation levels / Liquidation mapโ
You do not announce a map as a new feature three years later if you invented the category.
CoinGlass popularized the free lesser quality heatmap screenshot. Popular โ first. Sources: https://t.co/se2Spg7fO7 ยท https://t.co/b1vVYu8MKp tweet 1676535780838367232
