$LTC Over these 15m, it moved a bit violently—the volume was pushed straight to 3.2x. The active execution is down -42.9%, and the buy/sell ratio is 0.40. It’s clearly like someone is smashing prices downward.
But here’s what’s interesting: on the OI side—15m -0.02%, 1h -0.16%. The nominal change is only a little over a million U. The combination of price falling while OI drops looks more like longs de-leveraging / exiting with stop losses, not like shorts rapidly building positions. The 97.2% extreme percentile, whole pool #2—on the data it’s pretty explosive, but structurally it feels like a washout rather than a new trend starting.
The lower bound of the 5m range has already been broken, and the closing price is pressing below it. The short-term rhythm looks weak. The 55M 24h traded amount isn’t that thick; at this spot, if there isn’t volume stepping in to keep pushing down, it’s more likely to be a fake drop. First, let’s see whether after this de-leveraging purge there’s active buying that takes over.
