Short squeeze alert for November 10: Two cryptocurrencies with potential to skyrocket

The cryptocurrency market went through a massive volatility event in the past 24 hours, first to the upside and later to the downside. High volatility also means high derivatives volume and liquidity, which creates long-liquidations and short-squeeze opportunities.

With that in mind, Finbold turned to CoinGlass on November 9 and gathered data about long/short ratios from the top cryptocurrencies.

In particular, we found two digital assets with relevant imbalances favoring short positions. This extra liquidity might become attractive for market makers to seek short squeezes for November 10.

However, an increased short imbalance is also seen as a bearish signal, reflecting a negative sentiment for the project moving further. Investors and cryptocurrency traders must be capable of analyzing multiple indicators in order to make profitable decisions.

Bitcoin hits new yearly high; What's next for BTC price?

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) suffered with a major volatility in the day, trading as high as $255.54 but retracing back to $231.69 at the time of publication. Essentially, BCH returned to price levels of a week ago, registering 4.95% losses in the last 24 hours.

The price retracement brought a dominant bearish sentiment and a meaningful increase in short positions. Notably, Bitcoin Cash has $376.06 million in derivatives betting for lower prices within the next 12 hours. This means a 52.67% imbalance that could trigger a short squeeze for BCH.

Dogecoin (DOGE) short squeeze

Meanwhile, Dogecoin (DOGE) has also seen an aggressive retracement from $0.0774 to $0.0716, by press time. Nevertheless, DOGE was able to hold part of its weekly performance.

Despite stronger price support, derivative traders also showed bearish dominance on Dogecoin, with increased short positions that could be squeezed at any time. Interestingly, there is a massive $628.60 million in shorts (52.39%) for a 12-hour time frame and $959.73 million (51.70%) for a 24-hour time frame.

Both Dogecoin and Bitcoin Cash have seen high liquidation events in the past against short-sellers. In this context, the bearish dominance could trigger short squeezes for both cryptocurrencies or feed a pivotal downtrend for the rest of the week.

It is important to say that the recent plummet in price could have been a result of long liquidations.

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink Says Crypto and Gold Are ‘Assets of Fear’ – Here’s What He Means

Image
The CEO of the biggest asset manager in the world says that gold and cryptocurrencies are “assets of fear.” In a roundtable discussion at the Future Investment Initiative (FII) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink says that crypto assets are a legitimate investment for those who want to hedge against “optimism.” “If you believe that countries are going to continually debase their currency, if you believe that they’re is going to be global rise of insecurity… crypto assets or gold are assets of fear. You own these assets because you’re frightened of the debasement of your assets, you’re worried about your financial security, you’re worried about your fiscal security, and between crypto assets and gold, there’s a strong belief that it’s a good hedge against optimism.” In a separate interview with 60 Minutes, Fink says that after being initially skeptical of Bitcoin (BTC), he ...
