$DJT 24 hours drops 6%, closing at 8.66; the funding rate is -0.0015. When the price falls, funding is negative—so shorts are building positions, but shorts have to pay longs every day.
What coin did this kind of structure show up on last time? The price drifts down, funding stays negative, and shorts think the direction is right, but their position costs are getting ground down. This is a classic case of crowded shorts. A feature of stocks tied to the Trump narrative is that one headline can completely throw the logic off. Shorts are betting on negative news for him, but if he holds a rally or leads in polls, the price can bounce very quickly—because shorts are paying money themselves, effectively putting their own heads near the fire.
So my approach is to go against human nature and try a long. Direction: long; Leverage: 3x; Stop-loss: 8.3. If it breaks below 8.3, it means the short-side strength is truly strong—then I admit defeat. Take-profit: 9.2, back to the previous consolidation range. Position size: 10%, small trade for trial and error. The conditions for this trade to fail are very clear: if there’s explicit negative news from Trump’s side, and the price breaks below 8.3 on increased volume, then the logic is gone—I’ll leave immediately. The longer the days that shorts have to pay, the more violent the liquidation/trampling will be when they finally close.
