Fed News Sparks Fear - Why Bitcoin Shorts Are Increasing

Recently, I am seeing some disturbance in the market and I am seeing that many traders are bearish on Bitcoin. Many people have opened short positions. You can estimate this by looking at how many liquidations are on the long side and how many are on the short side.

First, let's understand what a short position is. Whenever a trader opens a short position, it means that he is bearish and his price expectation is that the price will fall. What they do is short sell Bitcoin at the current price so that selling pressure increases and the price keeps falling.

One of the biggest reasons for this shorting is that interest rate hikes have created disturbance in the global market. Whenever rates are increased, money flow moves out of Bitcoin and into USD and other assets. In this way, selling pressure is created.

Another reason is that we saw Bitcoin make a recent high and create a bullish cycle. Now that cycle has ended, and we are moving toward the bearish cycle. The expectation for Bitcoin now is that it may remain near its lows so that in the next bullish cycle its price can move up again.

Whenever bad news related to the Fed spreads in the market, fear increases and panic selling can also push the price down significantly.

Now the question is if Bitcoin falls further what effects will it have on altcoins?

I believe the effect on altcoins will not be very large because the bearish cycle is now near its end. After a few months, Bitcoin may touch its low and then move back into a bullish cycle. The hope is that from there an altcoin season may also begin.

As far as my opinion and expectation are concerned you should invest little by little in your favorite coins whenever possible because a huge spike may be seen in the future. The bearish trend gives you plenty of time to invest, and as much as possible, you should keep doing DCA to bring your average price down.

Especially if I talk about Hive Coin, if you are interested in investing in Hive then I think this is a very good price level. At this price you can buy Hive and directly power it up. After powering up, hold it.

Whenever the price starts increasing or it becomes three to four times higher then at that time you can power down and slowly start selling your holdings.

This bearish phase is mainly because of the recent Fed news and I do not think it will last for a long time. The market may recover very soon.

What do you people think about current market condition? Do you think market will recover back? Will be glad to see your answers in the comment section.
