Morgan Stanley: BTC may be forming a short squeeze, with short positions closing pushing the price to rise.

Odaily News Odaily Planet Japan reports that the “Big Morgan” Morgan Stanley cryptocurrency strategy team pointed out that when traders bet on the fall of Bitcoin using leveraged tools, the continuous rise in price puts their margin accounts at risk of being liquidated.

Morgan Stanley stated that most shorts are concentrated at defensive points below 115,000 dollars. If the price continues to hold above 117,000 dollars, it could trigger a new round of short positions Close Position worth 500 million dollars, further strengthening the pump momentum.
