Like a small stall in a night market that suddenly draws a long queue— the more people there are, the more newcomers lose track of whether they came to eat or just to join the excitement. $Lobster Today it’s entered the leaderboard; I’m handling it as the latter.
In the past 24 hours, contract trading volume has already hit 360.03M USDT. On the spot side, I don’t see comparable-level follow-through, which suggests that sentiment is being amplified mainly on the leveraged side. The funding rate has directly topped out at +0.1072%. This isn’t healthy turnover—it’s more like longs are fighting to grab position. Open interest is still sitting at 760,758,983 $Lobster with no obvious easing. Once the price spikes upward, it’s easy for the back of the line to pile up on the same side.
I didn’t chase longs. I placed a very light counter-trend short—only 2% position size. This isn’t a bet that it will immediately reverse; it’s a drawdown setup under conditions of high funding rates and high open interest. If it continues to surge with increasing volume, my stop-loss will get hit—I won’t wrestle against this kind of momentum.
A coin like this can get into the contract gainers leaderboard #1. In many cases, it’s not that the coin itself is getting stronger first—it's the leverage that amplifies the volatility ahead of time. If you’re taking trades like this, first think clearly whether your profit is coming from continuation, or from the price spread you receive when others get liquidated/close their positions. $Lobster #Lobster
Don’t go all-in. If you lose money, don’t blame me.
