This 15m candle for $CT is pretty intense. A 1.18% price drop isn’t too dramatic, but OI fell 2.68% in 15m, wiping out 255K in notional value. It’s also down 2.23% over 1h, declining over several consecutive periods. This isn’t shorts opening new positions—it’s longs pulling out, either through stop-losses or passive deleveraging.
Volume is 2.64x, the aggressive buy/sell volume delta is -12.4%, and the buy/sell ratio is 0.78, with sellers in control. The OI anomaly percentile is 94.8%, ranking #2 across the entire pool, while the notional change ranks #15. That’s an extreme move, and it’s not just a one-period spike: it’s sustained across consecutive periods and confirmed by the depth data.
24h trading volume is 21.98M, so the pool isn’t particularly large. In this kind of low-liquidity environment, OI contraction can lead to a prolonged drift downward. There’s no sign of buyers stepping in for now. Watch whether OI can stabilize; if it can’t, there may be another leg down.
