KORU is currently around 20.4u. Since yesterday’s high at 21.8, it has pulled back again. Same as usual: I’ll put the conclusion first—this spot feels neutral to me. I won’t chase longs, and I’m not in a hurry to short either. For now, I’ll just watch.
The issue is on the short-term cycle. When price drops below the 15-minute moving average, this 4-hour leg that ran from 19.8 to 21.8 couldn’t hold, and then it slid down. The futures market is even more direct: over the past seven hours, open interest fell by nearly 8%. The aggressive buy side makes up only a little over 40%, sell orders are pressing against buys, and aggressive volume is also down by about one-third.
But I’m not turning bearish, because there’s support underneath. The whale long/short ratio is 1.9. Over seven hours, they added about 15 points. The account-side is adding longs in sync as well. In the order book, buy orders are roughly 30% thicker than sells. Funding rates are pinned near the floor. Out of eight windows, only one is positive. It doesn’t look overheated.
The awkward part is the spot market. In these recent windows, large orders haven’t really shown up—nothing substantial. Net inflows are just eating the leftovers. Spot’s daily volume is about $960 million, and it’s all disagreement-driven churn with no incremental signaling.
In plain terms: the upside is propped up mainly by leverage sentiment, while the downside has whale support. The real direction will only be decided when capital makes its own choice. If you’re spot-only, I won’t move. If you want to gamble on a short-term trade, either wait for price to get back above the moving averages, or wait for a pullback near 20 to stabilize. Chasing longs from this level isn’t great on risk-reward.
