BlockBeats News, January 18 — The crypto trading indicator analysis platform CoinKarma stated, "BTC surged to nearly $98,000 on Monday, but as it approached that level, the market experienced the most significant selling pressure in recent weeks, causing a slight pullback. However, overall liquidity between buyers and sellers has not shown a clear imbalance and remains relatively balanced.
Other key market indicators have not yet shown clear signals. Based on the current situation, long positions entered at the relatively low points at the beginning of the year may consider taking profits. They can choose to close all or part of their positions and wait for clearer signals before re-entering."

BTC dips slightly by 0.53% in 15 minutes: whale transfers increase sell pressure and amplified liquidity widen the short-term drop
From 17:45 to 18:00 (UTC) on 2026-04-19, within 15 minutes BTC’s spot price fell -0.53%, with a price range of 74648.4 to 75212.8 USDT and a swing of 0.75%. During this period, market attention increased, volatility clearly accelerated, and the magnitude of the abnormal move exceeded typical levels for the same timeframe.
The main driver behind this abnormal move was that large-whale accounts concentrated transfers of BTC to a certain major exchange; the All Exchanges Whale Ratio (EMA14) rose to a near-ten-month high, and sell pressure increased significantly in a short time, becoming a direct cause of the spot price decline.
