$SNXX 24h It has dropped 16.226%, with the price at 14.56, yet the funding rate is still 0.00021791—positive. Old dog took a look at this setup: with such a deep drop, longs are still paying positive funding. The position hasn’t been fully cleared; it looks more like being trapped and then adding money to keep it alive. My view is that there’s still liquidation pressure in the short term. Don’t go long until the price reclaims 14.56.
A single-source report from Schwab on August 18 said that after the ceasefire ended, oil prices and bond yields continued rising, rate concerns warmed up, and chip stocks plunged hard. $SNXX is a daily 2x long product; when the underlying hits a sector beta selloff, the decline can be amplified into double digits. Since the funding rate is above zero—the iron law is longs pay shorts—longs are crowded. A -16.226% drop paired with positive funding is a classic trapped-long/add-to-position structure. The next stampede is very likely triggered by longs’ strong forced liquidations. Trading volume is 1,091,784,245.18; it looks big, but open interest is 1,889,612.23. Different units—old dog doesn’t use the two to judge which side has lighter or heavier positioning.
The strongest counterargument is this: $SNXX is only a daily 2x long. Once the market’s beta recovers, the rebound could be sharp. Meanwhile, the price has already fallen 16.226%. Chasing a short here is likely to get caught by shorts covering and turning the tables. MarketBeat only provided a historical price chart—no verifiable support levels—so it can’t be treated as evidence of a bottom. So old dog neither buys longs mid-drawdown nor adds shorts here.
The second-order effect is like this: if the price keeps churning below 14.56, longs must keep paying funding to maintain their positions. Liquidation pressure will transmit to the hedging side; when there’s a rebound, longs closing can also push the price back down. Only when the funding rate turns negative, or when the price regains 14.56, does it suggest the longs’ liquidation phase is largely over—possibly a short-term squeeze. My move is to stay in cash and observe. If $SNXX rebounds but can’t hold 14.56, I won’t touch it. If it stands above 14.56, I’ll consider trying a small long position. If the 24h drop keeps widening, it means the positive funding environment is still bleeding longs—then the call stays the same.
