$SHOP In the past 24 hours, it dropped 5.47%, and the price has fallen to 127.24. Meanwhile, the on-chain contract funding rate remains at 0.00013451, which is positive.
This is a typical long-troubles situation. The price is moving downward, but the funding rate is positive—meaning that every 8 hours, long position holders pay money to short sellers. It’s like bleeding and still being forced to drain out more for medical bills.
From the perspective of micro funding flows, right now the longs trading the $SHOP contract are in a rather passive position. As the price falls, they are losing on paper. A positive funding rate keeps increasing their position costs. If they choose to “hold on,” they’re subsidizing the other side with real money. If they start closing positions to stop the loss, the sell pressure will push the price down further, making it easier to form a self-reinforcing downtrend.
The strongest counter-evidence is this: if there is dip-buying capital entering here, and the price quickly rebounds and holds steady, then the long positions paying funding could wait out the rally. The shorts, having misjudged, would be forced to close, which would drive prices higher. In that case, this drop could turn out to be a shakeout.
But based on the current data, the risk of longs being forced to cut is greater. The number 1742.11 for open interest doesn’t directly tell the whole story by itself, but together with the price and funding rate, it may represent a batch of trapped positions. Their cost range and liquidation price are key observation points for the next phase of the market—unfortunately, those data aren’t included in the input.
I tend to believe that in the short term, the $SHOP contract market is being dominated by the shorts. The longs are bleeding continuously, and unless some external force strongly reverses the price trend, the pressure from passive liquidations will gradually become more apparent.
My plan is to observe from the sidelines. Unless I see two signals: first, the price shows a clear rebound that exceeds the current drawdown; and second, the funding rate turns negative—I’ll consider trying to go long. If the price continues to drift down and the funding rate stays positive, I will completely avoid it.
A dissenting viewpoint: if the market believes that after consecutive declines there must inevitably be a rebound, then in an environment where the funding rate is positive, that consensus itself is attracting shorts to come in and get harvested.
