Traders Reluctant to Re-Enter After Flash Crash

Following Trump’s 100% tariff announcement, traders appear unwilling to re-enter risk after massive liquidations.

Cointelegraph’s Ray Salmond told Schwab Network:
“There’s a liquidity pocket of long positions that are being exploited… from $120K to $113K, with bids stacked from $115K down to $110K.”

Heatmaps also show leveraged longs vulnerable near $98.6K, suggesting more volatility ahead.

Caution is understandable — many traders were burned badly and will wait for clearer confirmation before re-entering.

The fear of another sudden dip is keeping sidelined cash idle; confidence takes time to rebuild.
