- Bitcoin reached a four-month low of USD 62,112 during Asian trading on November 15, according to Yahoo Finance.

Bitcoin price reached a four-month low during Asian trading on Sunday as leveraged positions were liquidated across crypto markets. The largest digital asset touched USD 62,112 on November 15 before trading at USD 64,843.6 at 05:39 GMT, according to a Yahoo Finance report citing Investing.com.
Liquidations Intensify the Market Move
Data cited by The Hindu BusinessLine, based on Bloomberg reporting, showed about USD 1.95 billion in crypto positions liquidated during the 24 hours through Sunday noon in Singapore. Bitcoin positions accounted for USD 758 million of that total, while Ether positions accounted for USD 466 million. Long positions made up most of the liquidations.
The same report said Bitcoin had broken below its 200-day moving average near USD 73,000. Rich Rosenblum, co-founder of crypto market maker GSR, described the episode as technical and said the move had contributed to new short positions and forced closures of leveraged bullish bets.
ETF Outflows Add Institutional Context
US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded almost USD 3 billion in net outflows between October 30 and November 13, according to the Bloomberg report. Yahoo Finance, citing Investing.com, put the latest trading week's ETF outflows at approximately USD 1.07 billion across seven consecutive sessions.
The reports also pointed to expectations for higher US interest rates and a broader risk-off mood as factors shaping the crypto market. Yahoo Finance additionally reported that stablecoin supply had contracted by USD 17 billion over the previous month, a development that can reduce available liquidity for digital-asset trading.
Levels Traders Are Watching
Glassnode identified a concentration of potential liquidations between USD 59,500 and USD 62,600, according to Yahoo Finance. That zone is relevant for leveraged traders because additional forced closures could amplify volatility if prices revisit it. The reported low of USD 62,112 was within that range.
Bitcoin price remains exposed to both crypto-specific flows and broader monetary-policy expectations. The figures describe market conditions rather than a forecast, and leveraged products can produce losses that exceed an investor's initial position size.
