It serves as a key gauge of market activity and trader participation, so when it rises alongside a price increase, it indicates that new money is flowing into the market, strengthening the trend.<\/p>\n For QNT, this indicates growing confidence among its traders that the current bullish momentum has room to continue.<\/p>\n Further, QNT\u2019s liquidation heatmap highlights a concentration of liquidity sitting above current levels at around $103.<\/p>\n Liquidation heatmaps are visual tools traders use to identify price levels where large clusters of leveraged positions are likely to be liquidated. These maps highlight areas of high liquidity, often color-coded to show intensity, with brighter zones representing larger liquidation potential.<\/p>\n Such zones are often described as \u201cprice magnets,\u201d drawing spot and derivatives activity toward them as traders seek to exploit potential squeezes. This setup suggests that QNT may continue its upward trend<\/a> toward the liquidity cluster, provided market momentum holds.<\/p>\n On the daily chart, QNT\u2019s Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator is trending upward, supporting the case for a sustained rally. As of this writing, this momentum indicator is at 0.02.<\/p>\n The CMF measures the flow of capital into and out of an asset by analyzing price and volume. A surging CMF like this reflects increasing buy-side pressure, strengthening the case for sustained bullish action for QNT.<\/p>\n If demand remains high, it could trigger a breach of the resistance at $101.87 and climb toward\u00a0 $107.68.<\/p>\n QNT Futures Open Interest.
