Bitcoin below $100K now ‘less likely’ as BTC price eyes liquidity at $106K

5 hours ago 1

Key takeaways:

Bitcoin price consolidates around $105,000 as liquidity builds up above the spot price.
A support/resistance flip at $106,00 is a must for the bulls as $100,000 remains a key level.

Bitcoin fell alongside the broader crypto market during Tuesday’s late New York trading hours, dropping by as much as 4% to $103,400 after US President Donald Trump’s comments on the Iran-Israel conflict.

After tapping the liquidity around $103,000, traders said a correction to areas below $100,000 was unlikely as liquidity builds up above $106,000.

Bitcoin price key support remains at $100,000

Bitcoin’s price has held successfully above the $100,000 psychological level since reclaiming it on May 8. This has remained a critical level on traders’ radars and has not received a convincing retest recently.

MN Capital founder Michael van de Poppe spotted Bitcoin hovering at $104,400, saying that after being rejected from the $106,000 level, BTC may drop lower to take the liquidity between $100,000 and $103,000.

An accompanying chart shows $100,000 as the key level to watch on BTC’s four-hour time frame. Losing this level would see traders look for entry positions below $100,000.

Van de Poppe added:

“The second region is sub-$100K, which I find less likely.”

Pseudonymous analyst CrypNuevo shared a chart showing Bitcoin “looking good” as it holds above $100,000 after successfully retesting it on June 6.

“All we need is this support level to hold, and to flip $106,000 into support to push the price higher,” the trader said.

As reported by Cointelegraph, the $100,000 level is an important psychological boundary with implications for sentiment should it fail to hold.

Liquidation clusters pop up above $106,000

Several traders eye a potential upside liquidity grab with ask orders clustering above $106,000.

The latest data from monitoring resource CoinGlass showed price eating away bids around $105,000, with ask-orders clustering between the spot price and $109,000.

The chart above shows ask orders worth $70 million building up around $106,500, with the $109,000-$110,000 cluster being another potentially significant liquidity area.

If the $106,000 level is broken, it could spark a liquidation squeeze, forcing short sellers to close positions and driving prices toward $110,000, which is the next major liquidity cluster.
