Traders could consider reducing long positions
Mainstream data observations
- BTC core liquidation levels:
Long positions: Liquidation price at $84,163 with a liquidation amount of $537 million;Short positions: Liquidation price at $85,923 with a liquidation amount of $616 million.BTC's price is $84,578.43. Comparatively, long positions are in a more dangerous zone and have a larger liquidation amount, making this a key price level. If BTC’s price drops near $84,163, traders could consider reducing long positions or be alert to further downside risks.
- ETH core liquidation levels:
Long positions: Liquidation price at $1,868.1 with a liquidation amount of $104 million;Short positions: Liquidation price at $1,898.1 with a liquidation amount of $74.31 million.The current ETH price is $1,880.4. Given that the current price is close to the liquidation price for longs, traders may consider shorting if the price falls below $1,868.1, with a stop-loss set above $1,898.1 to manage the risk of a rebound. If the price stabilizes above $1,898.1, the market may enter a bullish trend, and traders might consider increasing long positions.
- Total stablecoin market cap: $234.48BThe total market cap shows no significant change. Yesterday, the USDC Treasury minted 250 million new USDC on the Solana chain, and today, 60 million USDC were burned on the Ethereum chain. This indicates that there is a considerable latent demand for funds on Solana. It is advisable to monitor DeFi and other innovative projects on the Solana chain for potential investment opportunities.
- BTC market cap share: 61.41%TOTAL 3 Market Cap: $774.46B (24h change: -1.14%)This suggests that the market currently holds a high level of recognition and trust in BTC, while the TOTAL 3 index has slightly declined with no clear trend emerging.
- Current miner breakeven price: $53,795.08However, nearly half of miners have shutdown prices above the current BTC price, with the Antminer S19XP’s shutdown price at $77,497.35. Considering other data indicators, the possibility of a significant drop in BTC is relatively low, thus the likelihood of large-scale miner shutdowns is also small.
- Bitcoin MVRV-Z score: 1.83The MVRV ratio is the quotient of the current market cap (minimum market value) over the realized value (the sum of the value of all BTC at their last movement). It has been oscillating at a relatively low level recently, possibly due to the anticipated announcement of reciprocal tariffs by Trump, causing a slight rebound in the index.
- Bitcoin BVIV score: 51.68Previously, from February 3, 2024, to March 11, 2024, the BVIV score surged by 96.52%, during which BTC’s price increased from $43,193 to $72,702, marking a 68.32% rise and a strong upward trend. As the tariff policy announcement approaches, the current BVIV has slightly declined. It is important to monitor the BVIV trend after the tariff policy is implemented to further analyze the upward or downward trend.
[Market rating]On April 1, after learning that Donald Trump would announce a reciprocal tariff policy on April 2, the market experienced a brief rebound, and the BVIV index continued to decline. In the short term, BTC's potential volatility is expected to decrease, and further decisions will be made in light of the upcoming tariff announcement. If the tariff policy turns out to be mild, the market may witness a significant rebound. Considering other market factors, the current bull/bear sentiment score is 65 (cautiously bullish, pending the implementation of the tariff policy).
[Below 50: Bearish; 60-80: Neutral; Above 80: Bullish]
Market overview
US stocks opened lower but recovered throughout the day, driving BTC to continuously break higher, reaching a peak of $85,595. With Donald Trump's tariff policy nearing implementation, market investors are betting that following the implementation of reciprocal tariffs, US stocks will rebound. In the near term, BTC's trend is completely influenced by tariffs and US stocks. It is expected that after the tariff policy is executed, the market will gradually return to normal; however, to break free from the downward trend below $80,000, BTC needs to push upward to $92,000.
USD Index: The DEA line of the USD Index has risen above the zero line, but the convergence of the differential line indicates that upward momentum may be weakening. Historically, the US dollar tends to perform strongly in the first quarter, but there is a high probability of a pullback in April. Both MACD and RSI indicators show a slowdown in the upward momentum of the US dollar, suggesting that it is likely to adjust after the tariff policy is announced. Meanwhile, risk assets such as US stocks and BTC may see a rebound.
US Federal Reserve: According to the latest CME Federal Reserve Watch data, the probability of holding rates steady in May is 91.8%, with an 8.2% chance of a 25 basis point cut. For June, the probability of holding rates steady is 21.2%, with a cumulative probability of a 25 basis point cut at 72.5% and a 50 basis point cut at 6.3%. Goldman Sachs' latest forecast predicts that the Federal Reserve will cut rates three times this year, in July, September, and November. The uncertainty caused by the tariff policy is expected to lead to a slowdown in consumer spending and a contraction in business investment, which will have a deep impact on the US economy. It is anticipated that the Fed will begin cutting rates in June-July, and the probability of three rate cuts this year continues to increase. The market reaction after the tariff policy takes effect on April 2 will continue to be closely monitored
