$SKHY This time the perpetual has some action; position changes and market-price order direction should be judged against the price.

On the 15m chart, price is +0.45%, open interest is +0.91%. Right now it looks more like a “low-volume consolidation”: neither price nor positions have clearly declared, and the market is still grinding.

Aggressive buys account for 50.7%, and buy/sell are close. The funding rate is slightly negative, and short-side costs are starting to rise.

Don’t try to guess this kind of consolidation—wait for the volume and the position change to show up together, then look for the direction.
