SOL 24 hours: it got hammered all the way from 110 down to 102.2, then rebounded back to 104—down nearly 3%. But this long bearish candle wasn’t made by spot selling. In fact, in the spot market there’s net inflow over three hours across 12 K-lines—none turned green. Active buying is simply 15 times what sells look like. Price is falling, but real money is stepping in.
Open up the contract side and it becomes clear: open interest was cut by 8.75% in a single day, falling into the bear_capitulation zone—leveraged longs are getting liquidated. Spot is in the process of taking delivery, while contracts are being cleared. Chips are transferring from leveraged hands to spot hands, and the bid-side order stack is about 20% thicker than the asks.
And the bearish signals aren’t being ignored either: for the past 7 hours, whale long positions have been reduced again by 8.58%. Big players are still cutting leverage. The 4-hour to daily trend hasn’t flipped bullish. But the spot long/short ratio on the financing side is 16.4 times, and it’s up another 48% over 12 hours. The backstop is real cash—not someone lifting bids with empty hands.
I’m going long, betting on a rebound after liquidation-driven shakeout. If the close breaks below 102.18, or if spot net inflow turns from red to green (fails to continue as net inflow), I’ll immediately flip to short.
