Bitcoin’s Price May Reach $90,000 Again Soon, But Traders Differ on Odds of a BTC Price Pullback
On November 22, Bitcoin (BTC) encountered a significant challenge in reaching the coveted $100,000 mark as $300 million in sell-side liquidity obstructed its path.
Technical Analysis and Market Data
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView demonstrated that BTC price was reversing at the Wall Street open. At the time of writing, the BTC/USD rate had fallen to local lows of under $97,300, with a daily decline of approximately 1.2%.

A previous attempt by BTC to breach the key six-figure market level ended in defeat as sellers lined up to prevent further price appreciation—a common phenomenon for Bitcoin around significant psychological levels.
Sell Wall and Liquidity Analysis
Material Indicators, a trading resource, confirmed in its latest post on X that ‘FireCharts shows a massive Bitcoin sell wall compressed between the $99.3k – $100k range.’ This liquidity was primarily observed on Binance, with the $100,000 sell wall clearly standing out against other levels while increasing in strength over the past few hours.

Accompanying volume data indicated that sell-side transactions were dominated by amounts between $100 and $1,000. Notably, whales remained hesitant to engage in mass distribution, which could potentially lead to a more significant price correction.

Meanwhile, trader Roman noted promising bullish divergences on the four-hour relative strength index (RSI). The RSI fell 10 points on the day, dipping below the key 70 ‘overbought’ level.
