Bitcoin briefly climbed above $120,000 in the early morning hours, its highest level since August, triggering a nearly $400 million forced position squaring in the last 24 hours. About $282 million came from short positions and $120 million came from long positions, which were dominated by Bitcoin and Ethereum, the data showed. The largest crypto asset by market capitalization has rallied more than 7 percent since the start of the week. Traders are closely monitoring the performance of the fourth quarter, as October has historically been one of Bitcoin's strongest months, with an average return of 21 percent. Market participants are making position adjustments to see if the current upward trend can continue into the final quarter.
