Review the “ramp-up watch” from the bullish morning about 13 hours ago.
Out of the three that were bullish in the morning, LDO continued to apply pressure; SPELL and USTC fizzled out. The result was: 1 pulled through, 2 didn’t catch the move.
Opening-round recap: the chips are tightening.
SPELL: fizzled out; the bullish move in the morning didn’t break through.
After the initial round, the price fell 6.23%, and the direction is already opposite to the bullish watch.
The open interest actually increased by 10.18%, but active buy orders dropped from 0.98 to 0.88—suggesting that adding positions didn’t lift the price back up. The chart looks more like inadequate follow-through after a ramp-up.
LDO: continued to apply pressure—this is the one that came out of the bullish set in the morning.
After the initial round, the price stayed up by another 1.51%, while open interest continued to rise by 18.82%, indicating the price didn’t back off and positioning is still being picked up.
However, active buy orders fell by 0.29; the chase-buy strength isn’t as strong as in the morning. Next, we’ll see whether new positioning can continue to cooperate with the price.
USTC: fizzled out; the bullish setup in the morning was clearly weakened.
After the initial round, the price dropped 7.47%, while open interest decreased by 21.14%. This isn’t continuation aligned with the bullish thesis—it looks like the heat left first.
Although active buy orders rebounded, it didn’t change the structure of the price and open interest both weakening at the same time. At present, it looks more like it’s falling behind.
Next, we’ll mainly watch two points along this line.
First, whether LDO’s price can continue to rise in the same direction as open interest, to confirm whether there’s still follow-through within this bullish set.
Second, whether SPELL and USTC can once again show price stopping the decline, open interest replenishing, and active buys repairing; if price stays weak and open interest stays scattered, then treat it as a counter-signal and reassess.
