Bitcoin’s $87K breakout just taught us something.
Yesterday, BTC pushed above $87K.
People started calling it a breakout.
Then the market turned around.
BTC dropped back toward $84K, and more than $430M in crypto positions were liquidated in 24 hours. Most of those were long positions.
Here’s what most people miss:
A breakout can attract buyers… and trap them at the same time.
When everyone starts chasing the move, leverage builds up.
Then price pulls back.
And suddenly, those leveraged positions start getting forced out.
That selling can make the drop even faster.
So next time you see BTC suddenly break a major level, don’t just ask:
How high can it go?
Ask:
How many people are chasing this move?
