HIGHLIGHT ☝️ | The recent collapse of bitcoin from all-time highs has taken its toll: leveraged traders have liquidated more than 500 million dollars.
📉 This event, often called a "crash" or "selloff", occurs when the price of an asset drops sharply, forcing exchange platforms to automatically close the positions of leveraged traders to cover the losses.
Do liquidations cause drops?
👍🏼 = Yes, always
😂 = No, it's a coincidence
👏 = Sometimes
