FAQ
What is a crypto liquidation?
When a leveraged position's losses eat its margin down to the maintenance requirement, the exchange closes it by force. Long liquidations are forced sells, short liquidations forced buys - large waves of them can push price further in the same direction.
Do big liquidation waves mark tops and bottoms?
That is a common belief and one we plan to test with the same pre-registered method as our first study. Until then: no claim.
