According to Coinglass data, Ethereum price thresholds around $2,800 and $3,000 mark elevated market risk on mainstream exchanges. The analysis highlights how punctuated moves at these levels can trigger rapid liquidity stress, underscoring the importance of risk controls as participants recalibrate leverage and margin requirements.

At the sub-$2,800 level, the cumulative long liquidation intensity across major CEXs could approach $849 million, while a breakout above $3,000 might push the cumulative short liquidation intensity to about $659 million. COINOTAG emphasizes the chart depicts relative intensity, not exact contract counts, and reflects potential price impact from a liquidity cascade rather than a precise liquidation tally.

For traders and risk managers, these metrics underscore the need for disciplined position sizing and continuous monitoring of liquidity clusters as prices navigate key thresholds.
