Chart of the Week

At the beginning of the Asian market hours, a notable wave of selling pressure targeted the BTC-USD trading pair on Coinbase. Approximately 3,000 BTC was  sold, in a matter of 2 hours - equivalent to around $200 million. This significant market activity drew the attention of market makers who seized the opportunity to engage, and capitalise on the opportunity. The 2% bid depth for BTC-USD on Coinbase increased from 200 to 700 BTC in a matter of minutes, indicating heightened trading activity.

In response to these dynamics, the price of Bitcoin experienced a substantial downturn. Initially, Bitcoin was trading around the $63,000 mark at the time of the event but subsequently fell to $61,200 levels. The downward momentum persisted throughout the trading session, with Bitcoin's price marking a low of $61,025 by 12:30 today. This trend underscores the persistent volatility and rapid shifts that can occur in the cryptocurrency markets, often influenced by large-scale trading movements and the strategic responses of market participants.
