$ON This move up in the past 15 minutes saw a 2.6% gain; volume jumped straight to 2.11x. Volatility (Z) rose to 2.2—looks like bulls are aggressively pushing at the top. OI is also trending upward: the 15-minute contracts increased by 0.4%. The nominal change surged into the top 24 of the whole pool, and passive trading gap is down 15.8% with a buy/sell ratio of 1.37—clearly, active buy orders are driving it.

Price has already broken above the upper bound of the last 20 five-minute K-line range and is approaching the historical extreme range. The whole pool is ranked 7th unusually, and depth confirmation is also solid. Short-term sentiment is a bit overheated, but note that this seems more like new leveraged longs are getting involved. Since OI and price are rising together, it’s not a bounce created by shorts being forced to close and sell. Watch out for consolidation or wick spikes at high levels.
