Bitcoin liquidations happen when leveraged positions are force-closed because there is no longer enough margin to keep them open. This page tracks actual BTC liquidation events across major exchanges, with separate totals for long and short positions.
The live data shows how much has been liquidated over the last 1, 4, 8 and 24 hours, while the historical chart puts current activity in context. The exchange breakdown shows where BTC liquidations are happening and whether long or short traders account for most of the total.
Large liquidation spikes often appear during sharp Bitcoin moves. A wave of long liquidations usually follows a rapid drop, while heavy short liquidations can occur when price moves sharply higher. Tracking both sides makes it easier to see when leveraged positioning is being cleared from the market.
BTC liquidations are leveraged Bitcoin positions that an exchange force-closes after the trader's remaining margin falls below the required level. They can affect both long and short positions depending on the direction of the market move.
Long liquidations occur when Bitcoin falls far enough to force leveraged long positions to close. Short liquidations happen when Bitcoin rises and leveraged short positions can no longer meet their margin requirements. The long-versus-short split shows which side of the market absorbed more forced closures.
This page shows Bitcoin liquidations that have already occurred. A liquidation heatmap focuses on estimated price areas where leveraged positions may be liquidated in the future. They answer different questions: one tracks realized liquidation activity, while the other shows potential liquidation levels.
Yes. The page includes BTC liquidation totals for the last 1 hour, as well as 4-hour, 8-hour and 24-hour windows. This makes it possible to compare very recent liquidation activity with the broader daily total.
The table aggregates liquidation activity across the exchanges covered on the page, including Binance, Bybit, Gate, HTX, Bitget, OKX and Lighter. Exchange-level figures are separated into long and short liquidations so the contribution of each venue can be compared.
The page is designed to track live Bitcoin liquidation activity and updates the displayed totals as new liquidation data becomes available. The short time windows are intended to show what is happening now, while the historical chart provides context for larger liquidation events.
