Bitcoin Slips 7% as Weekend Liquidation Wave Targets Bullish Positions

Cryptocurrency markets faced a sharp weekend flush as Bitcoin prices tumbled more than 7% to touch their lowest level since August 17. According to market data released on November 14, 2026, the digital asset breached key technical levels including 67.6K, 66.0K, and 65.0K, eventually hitting a low of 63.27K. Analysts noted that thin weekend liquidity accelerated the downward momentum rather than allowing prices to consolidate in a stable range.

Market metrics indicate persistent bullish positioning despite the steep drop. Open interest actually ticked up by 0.9% to roughly 209,300 Bitcoin, showing that new leveraged longs continued to enter the market to replace liquidated positions. Funding rates remained positive at 0.0020%, and the cumulative spot CVD plunged by roughly 1.1 billion dollars, heavily driven by selling activity on Coinbase and Binance.

Sentiment indicators registered a dramatic shift, with the Crypto Fear and Greed Index crashing to a reading of 13, firmly into Extreme Fear territory. Downside liquidation zones are currently eyed near the August lows at 62.2K, alongside psychological support at 60.0K and July lows around 57.8K. Market observers suggest that the ongoing downtrend will likely persist until leveraged long positions are fully flushed out of the system.
