In the early-morning options/contract order book, whether the signals are real or not depends on whether the invalidation conditions are actually set there.
The few movers identified today all have verifiable actions behind their price increases—not just numbers stacked on top.
$ONG is up 23.7%, funding rate is -0.198%, and the shorts are paying to hold positions and still haven’t exited.
Open interest rose in sync by 33.3%, which shows shorts are not merely cutting back—they’re adding and hard-holding.
The invalidation conditions are clear: if the funding rate turns positive, or if open interest reverses downward, it means the shorts have already run, and the squeeze logic no longer holds.
$STAR is up 23.3%. The trading volume isn’t huge—only $29.42 million.
But within one hour, open interest surged 51.5%; its rise is even faster than the price growth itself, indicating new positions are being concentratedly piled in.
The invalidation condition is that the price increase can’t keep up with the pace of open-interest growth. If there’s any stall in the rally, it suggests these new positions are being passively taken on, and the pullback may come faster than you’d expect.
$USELESS is up 23.2%. Trading value at $362 million is the largest among the three, and open interest doubled with a +103.9% jump.
The funding rate is still negative at -0.014%. With liquidity (volume), open interest, and short buy orders all confirming the same direction, the alignment is consistent.
The invalidation conditions are likewise: funding rate turning positive plus open-interest growth slowing down—when both appear together, the signal is void.
All three signals are still valid right now; none has triggered the invalidation conditions. What’s worth watching is whether USELESS’s open interest doubling can hold.
Moving forward, the increases in rank are: UAI up 20.4%, CRV up 17.4%, FF up 17.2%, Lobster up 14.4%, FIL and ARB both up 14.0%, OP up 11.6%. The narrowing gradient is normal for follow-through.
Today, all three products are showing squeeze/shorting-pressure signals, but the risk controls to focus on aren’t the direction itself—they’re whether the invalidation conditions have actually been triggered.
