BTC 15-minute decline of 0.48%: Selling pressure and liquidity shifts amplify global volatility
2026-03-18 11:15 to 11:30 (UTC), BTC recorded a -0.48% return within 15 minutes, with a price range of 73570.9 to 74008.0 USDT, and amplitude reaching 0.59%. The market exhibited increased volatility characteristics during this period, drawing investor attention to the causes of short-term movements.
The main driving force behind this movement is the release of short-term selling pressure and changes in liquidity.

QCP Capital analysis indicates that BTC price is maintaining around $74,000, with a lack of upward momentum. Although the overall crypto market remains under pressure, the declines are relatively controlled.
