$ENA Here’s something interesting in the early session👇
On the 15m timeframe, the drop isn’t big—only 0.54%—but volume directly expands to 2.5x, and the price also touches the lower boundary of the 20 5m candles. The key point is OI: both the 15m and 1h contract open interest are falling, and the combined notional change is roughly 1.4M USD.
This structure is typical of longs running—not the kind of behavior where shorts enter and smash the market. The aggressive trade difference is -18.5%, the buy/sell ratio is 0.69. Sellers do look somewhat more active, but with OI shrinking along with it, it feels more like stop-loss liquidation and position reduction driving the drop, rather than brand-new shorts firing.
In the pool, the abnormal percentile ranks up to #9, and the notional change squeezes into #5—depth-wise it does have confirmation. 24h trading volume is 124M—not particularly outrageous, but not cold either.
At this level, if OI keeps shrinking, there may be a short-term breather; but if later OI turns back up together with increased volume breaking down further, that’s a different story. The tape is bearish, but we should discount it—first see whether this lower band can hold.
