Short sellers in $RLC carried the heaviest strain on the board in the Oct 11 snapshot at 15:00 UTC. Funding was -0.18%, meaning traders betting against it paid longs to keep their positions open, and open interest still grew 1.94% over 24 hours.

The rest of the list leans the other way, with long pressure as the dominant pattern. Fresh positions poured into $STRK, with open interest up 28.66%, into $TIA, up 19.86%, and into CHIP, up 48.97%. Funding on all three was 0% or -0.01%.

That is new money arriving without either side paying up to hold it, a different picture from the one sided cost carried by RLC shorts.
