2.41% - that’s the 24-hour pop for $XRP . It’s not a moonshot, but it’s enough to make the funding rate whisper.

XRP is sitting near $1.09, with a 2.41% rise in the last 24 hours - a modest move, but not without its own tension.

The market is still paying for leverage. Longs are still in the game, but not without a cost.

If the funding rate were negative, that’d be a clear signal - shorts are in control, and a squeeze could be coming.

If it slips below $1.06, the 7-day dip could be the start of something more.

Contract Quant Brief #106 | The pullback is still ongoing, but I’d rather wait for a retracement to confirm

Market situation:
Today is still a continuation session. The overall tone is bullish, but it’s not the kind of strength you can blindly chase. DEXEUSDT is trading right along the 20-day moving average. EVAAUSDT is surging faster. VIRTUALUSDT is also strong, but it’s farther away from the moving average. My focus is whether it can still hold after a retracement, not whether to hard-chase the extension.

Top candidates:
1）DEXEUSDT
This one feels more like a comfortable retracement entry within a trend. Current price is 35.07, it’s very close to the 20-day line, funding rates aren’t high, and the recent one-hour position change isn’t that dramatic—suggesting it’s not just random, emotion-driven buying.
Observation zone: 34.8-35.2
Trigger: After the retracement, it holds above the 20-day line and then reclaims and stays above 35.3, while volume continues to expand—then we’ll see if this is a second continuation.
Invalidation: If it breaks below 34.5 and fails to pull back up for a while, it means the momentum is starting to loosen.
I’ll take a closer look first; the entry is more comfortable than chasing the high.

2）EVAAUSDT
This one is more like “runs fast, but shakes more easily.” The 6-hour increase is already large. In the last hour it’s still pushing higher, but the position change is starting to ease off. That suggests there are plenty of people chasing on the short-term rally, but the follow-through may not be keeping pace.
Observation zone: 2.38-2.42
Trigger: After the retracement, it doesn’t break and then reclaims the ~2.50 area. Then we’ll watch to see if it accelerates again for a second push.
Invalidation: If it falls back below 2.30, short-term strength can easily turn into high-level consolidation.
I don’t want to hard-chase this one either—I’d rather wait for it to give you the position.

Watchlist / Not chasing for now:
VIRTUALUSDT is also strong, but it’s farther from the moving average. It’s the type where “strong remains strong,” but the volatility is larger when you chase—so I’ll just keep it under observation for now and won’t elaborate.

Risk warning:
Today is more suitable for waiting for confirmation; it’s not suitable for chasing just because you see red. If it’s truly strong, it will still offer opportunities after the retracement. If it’s fake strength, once it spikes, it’s easy to give back gains.

When the price breaks below a key support line, it’s often the moment when panic sellers and smart money narrowly miss each other.

Take a look at the recent $VVV : over the past 30 days it has been in a steady downtrend, falling more than 37%, and it’s already been cut in half from its ATH. It’s now hovering around $10.48 in search of support. As an exchange token nearing the top 100 by market cap (#106), it once delivered a staggering +285% performance over a one-year run—but right now it’s going through a brutal phase of profit-taking liquidation.

This kind of move isn’t unusual in the cycle. After a high-volume sell-off around mid-June that totaled 140 million USD, the bulls failed to organize an effective counterattack. The recent liquidity of roughly 40 million suggests that buyers are still watching and waiting. When it’s listed on top-tier exchange contracts, liquidity is plentiful—but it also gives shorts a natural channel to vent, and early alpha is being repriced by the market.

Risk is also laid bare here: the tolerance for “catching the falling knife” on the left side is extremely low. If buying volume doesn’t pick up afterward, and the current price breaks below the $10 psychological level, it will most likely test even deeper demand zones. Never blindly bottom-fish just because “it’s been cut in half.” A trend bottom requires confirmation under the right conditions.

Only when liquidity ebbs can you see the true thickness of the buy orders. 📉 Do you think this deep pullback—$VVV —is long-term capital pulling over to pick someone up, or just a long, bearish leg in the middle of the downtrend?
