The ETH Liquidation Game - A Trader's Hidden Truth

Looking at Ethereum's 24-hour liquidation heatmap has got me scratching my head. Yeah, ETH cleared the liquidity above that 4700 previous high, but let's get real about what's happening behind the scenes.

I've been watching these charts day and night, and I'm convinced the big players are setting up the perfect trap. Sure, ETH might still push to 5k - the market's always hungry for those psychological barriers - but don't be fooled by the hype.

Before any meaningful upward movement, we're gonna see a correction to 4400 or lower. Why? Because there's a massive pool of sell-side liquidity waiting like sharks in those waters. The whales know this. They're counting on retail traders getting overextended.

This sell-side liquidity isn't just some abstract concept - it's where all us long-position holders have placed our stop losses. The smart money knows exactly where to push prices to trigger a cascade of liquidations before the next leg up.

I've watched this pattern play out countless times. The market makers target these liquidity zones deliberately, hunting our stops to fuel their next moves. It's not random - it's strategic manipulation, plain and simple.

Risk management is everything here. I've lost enough money learning this lesson the hard way. The weekend might look calm, but Monday could bring chaos.

Watch that 4400 zone like a hawk. The market rarely gives free rides to obvious price targets without shaking out weak hands first.

#ETH5kNext? Maybe. But the path there won't be the straight line everyone's hoping for.
