According to @52kskew, BTC selling showed hallmarks of forced liquidation with poor execution and urgency, indicating either a deep drawdown position or margin call pressure, source: @52kskew on X, Nov 21, 2025.

According to @milesdeutscher, even a 70% BTC drawdown would not force MicroStrategy (MSTR) or Michael Saylor to sell because there is no margin call on their debt and the average loan maturity is 4.8 years (source: @milesdeutscher). The source adds that the main tail risk is BTC staying low for years while capital markets stop funding the company (source: @milesdeutscher). The source further notes MicroStrategy could mitigate by selling small portions of BTC and pushing payments back if needed (source: @milesdeutscher). For BTC and MSTR traders, this indicates lower near-term forced-selling pressure from MicroStrategy during sharp drawdowns, per the source (source: @milesdeutscher).

According to Skew Δ (@52kskew), a significant number of short positions are being margin called on local cryptocurrency exchanges, indicating a rapid price move that is forcing traders to cover their shorts. This activity often leads to increased volatility and can trigger a short squeeze, potentially accelerating upward price momentum for major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Active traders should closely monitor funding rates and liquidation data as these margin calls could signal a reversal or continuation in prevailing market trends (source: Skew Δ on Twitter, June 16, 2025).

According to Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa) on Twitter, prominent trader James has publicly called for support of the Bitcoin cause, urging investors to buy BTC to combat corruption. Recent trading data shows James has opened new positions and faced rapid liquidation attempts, requiring him to add margin twice as liquidators targeted his partial liquidation prices. The speed of market hunts against James is notably faster than before, highlighting intensified volatility and risk in the Bitcoin market. Traders should closely monitor large position movements and liquidation zones, as such high-profile trades can trigger short-term price swings and strategic opportunities.

According to Crypto Rover, Michael Saylor has declared that his company has learned significantly over the past four years to ensure they will never face a margin call, signaling a bullish outlook for Bitcoin.

According to Reetika (@ReetikaTrades), a sudden negative balance appeared in her trading account, raising concerns about potential margin calls or unexpected fees. This situation highlights the importance of monitoring account balances closely to avoid liquidation risks or additional charges, especially in volatile cryptocurrency markets.

According to Liquidity Doctor, traders should consider a long position on Bitcoin with a limit entry at $85,600. The target is set at the margin call rate (MCR), and a margin of $25 with 10x leverage is recommended. The strategy suggests placing the order and waiting for execution at the limit price.
