Recently, an interesting phenomenon has appeared regarding ZEC on BitMex.

Data shows that short sellers account for 79.9%, indicating an extremely one-sided market trend. However, there's an important detail worth noting — in the past 24 hours, the amount of short liquidations is 4.6 times that of long positions. In other words, despite the large number of short sellers, their stop-loss orders are being triggered frequently.

Meanwhile, the activities of large funds have started to become active. On-chain monitoring shows signs of abnormal capital inflows, which usually suggests that major players are quietly positioning themselves.

There is a classic phenomenon in market psychology: when the vast majority of traders are standing in the same direction, counteracting forces are often brewing. The continuous liquidation of short positions provides ample fuel for long positions to accumulate stop-loss points.

From a technical perspective, if ZEC can stand above the key level of 450, the next observation point should be 475. Once it breaks through, bears may face a larger scale of short covering.

This is not a mysterious prediction, but a logical deduction based on data and market structure. An extremely unbalanced position is always difficult to maintain for too long.

ZEC-5,91%

79.9% short positions are so extreme, what does that indicate... The big whales are definitely waiting on the other side. Shorts are liquidating 4.6 times, this data is a bit fierce, it doesn't feel like a scam. If the 450 level is broken, shorts might really suffer. The main players are quietly positioning, on-chain data can't be fooled. In such extreme imbalance, how has history played out...

79.9% Short? That's a classic contrarian signal, the main force played it beautifully. --- Shorts liquidation 4.6 times... Why does no one see that this is paving the way for the longs? --- Is the 450 barrier really that tough? Feels like it's about to break. --- Again, big funds are quietly accumulating. How did it turn out every time they do this? --- Position imbalance will eventually need adjustment, it's an iron law. --- A 4.6 times liquidation gap, the shorts bet big this time, huh? --- Looking at 79.9% shorts, I always feel something's off... --- Main force funds are flowing in abnormally + extreme short positions, this combo is a bit fierce. --- 450→475, let's see if the longs can catch it first. --- Does this market psychology theory work every time?

Short squeeze of 4.6 times? The main players are accumulating on dips. This wave might get pretty intense. --- 450 is a critical point. Once it breaks 475, there's no turning back. Let's wait and see the replenishment wave. --- 79.9% short? That data must be way off. Most likely, big players are just harvesting the retail investors. --- Unusual capital inflow? Ha, the main players are up to their tricks again. Retail investors, it's time to wake up. --- Extreme imbalance will eventually correct itself. That's the market's iron law. If ZEC doesn't rise this time, it's surprising. --- The liquidation volume is 4.6 times higher. Basically, the shorts are hurting each other, while the longs sit back and profit. --- I've noted the two levels at 450 and 475. Let's wait for the validation of the thesis. --- Oh my, it's another tactic of big funds deploying. Every time it's the same story. If it were easy to make money, I'd be rich already. --- So many shorts are actually a good sign? The logic is clear, but I'm just worried it might be a hindsight analysis.

79.9% short positions? This wave is about to reverse, large funds are quietly accumulating chips. --- Short positions Get Liquidated 4.6 times, isn't this just handing a knife to long positions? --- If 450 can't break, I'll go All in on short positions, betting on this reverse. --- Market makers are laying out plans, retail investors are still daydreaming, it's classic. --- I've seen this kind of extreme imbalance a few times, and none of them ended with short positions laughing till the end. --- When it hits 450 to 475, there will be people asking why I didn't follow up, haha. --- The liquidation volume is key, the more stop loss points for short positions, the more fierce the rise for long positions. --- Feels a bit familiar, it was like this last time too, and the result was a reverse slap in the face. --- The details of on-chain fund inflow are well articulated, it really has the flavor of market makers. --- With such an imbalance in Holdings, it can't last for many more days.

Having so many short positions is actually a good thing. A liquidation volume of 4.6 times indicates what? It indicates that the dumping is weak. But is it really that hard to break through the 450 point? It feels like it's not that simple. The scent of big funds laying out is getting stronger, just watching.
