SPCX—this move up and then dipping back is concerning. In the past 24 hours it's still hanging around +2%, but I just don't trust this way of rising. In the spot order book, the buy-side thickness is only 43% of the sell side: sell orders are pressing more than twice the buy orders. For the futures, active buying only makes up 30%, while the dumping volume is more than twice the taker volume. After two days of gains, the spot large-order net inflow statistics are still all zero—no real money, not a single real bill in sight.

Open interest rose by 7.5% in a day, yet the price didn’t make a fresh high; instead it fell back below the 20-period moving average on the 15-minute chart. Over the most recent seven hours, OI retreated by 1.4%, and leverage has started to pull back. The funding rate across eight sampling intervals never turned positive even once—there’s no enthusiasm on the long side to keep paying and going long. Even the big players are more tangled up: accounts with more than 60% leaning long still reduced their positions by 1.3%. They shout “long” with their mouths but are cutting exposure with their hands—exactly like slowly offloading near the top.

As a timid spot trader, I can see it clearly: this isn’t distribution disguised as “washing”—it’s distribution. The rally is propped up by existing liquidity; if it can’t be held, it turns into a pullback. If it breaks below the moving average and can’t stand, it just seeks lower levels.

Short. Enter short on a rebound near the moving average, with a stop loss set above 139.8. Reversal conditions: spot large orders show continuous net inflows, active buys return to above 60%, and the price regains momentum and stands above 139.76 with renewed volume—that’s when I’ll admit I was wrong.
