62% of people are shorting—and the result was that they got their heads stomped as it surged 178%.

This is what’s happening with BTR today.

The price surged from 0.0296 all the way to 0.0888—nearly tripling. And more than 60% of the market’s contract positions are still betting it will fall. This situation has a specific term: "short squeeze." In plain terms, the more people are betting on the downside, the stronger the rally—because when they cut losses, they’re forced to buy.

Now look at trading volume: the last two hourly candlesticks saw trade values in the 1-billion and 1-billion range—20 to 30 times those of the prior hours. This doesn’t look like retail gradually building positions; it looks more like someone is triggering a chain reaction all at once.

The funding rate is 0.0747%, which is bullish. Every hour, shorts are paying longs. This pressure will keep pushing shorts to reduce positions.

The question now is: with three consecutive bullish hourly candles, momentum is still there—but the day’s high at 0.0888 has already been touched. Whether it can hold above that level is the next most critical point.

In this kind of market, volatility is extremely high. Being wrong about direction just once comes with a steep cost, and position sizing is more important than anything else.
