What is order book depth? Why can a large order cause significant price fluctuations when liquidity is insufficient?
In cryptocurrency trading, orders of the same size can produce completely different execution results under different market conditions. Sometimes, a large order enters the market without noticeably moving the price; at other times, a single order can drive the price sharply up or down. One key factor behind this is order book depth.
First, what is order book depth?

#BTC Interim target outlook.
Friends, the main peak of the 4-year cycle for Bitcoin $BTC falls in 2029 according to the calendar. But in every cycle, a strong interim rally occurred before that peak and even before the halving. The next halving is expected in spring 2028.
These interim rallies reached 67% of the previous peak (778) in 2016, 71% (13,970) in 2019, and 107% (73,777) in 2024. In this cycle, after the July 1, 2026 low of 57,800, 87,396 was reached on September 21. That's 69% of the 126,199 peak, the same ratio as the interim tops in 2016 and 2019.
The difference is that this ratio

Market snapshot: BTC's short-term rally driven by short covering, with 80k as a key dividing line
Market sentiment has warmed somewhat today. $BT surged rapidly from around 75.6k to around 80.6k, but this rally looks more like a quick rebound driven by short covering than a sign of large-scale fresh capital inflows. The short-term focus is on the 80k level: only if BTC can hold firmly above it might it go on to test 82k; if it falls below 78k again, this rebound will most likely be over.
$ETH followed $BTC back above 2400 and is currently fluctuating around 2420, showing an overall recovery

A chart that has been going viral in crypto over the past couple of days—look closely and you’ll notice some interesting things
In 2023, the meme ceiling could reach a market cap of over $10 billion; to make the list, you needed at least $1.5 billion
In 2026, the ceiling has dropped to $1 billion; you only need $200 million to make the list
The ceiling for memes keeps getting lower, mainly because there are too many memes flooding the market, diluting investors’ attention.
Note: For some reason, the person who made this chart didn’t include $TRUMP

What is the market trading now?
AI, the dollar, and U.S. Treasuries, which should be bearish, and gold and silver, which should be bullish, have basically all risen.
Risk assets—Bitcoin and the Nasdaq—also rose 2%~3% yesterday on the day of the great uprising.
Semiconductors continued to fall.
The market is currently in a quiet period. What is it trading? Nothing much.
It’s just pure positioning warfare.
After rising too much, it has to fall. That’s all.
