The condition we published as proving us wrong has just occurred. Five hours after we marked the call, here it is.

Yesterday we said the $LSK squeeze was in its late stage, not its start, and we published what would change that read before anything happened: "open interest turning back up in those names with funding still negative. That is the squeeze reloading rather than draining."

At the 12:07 UTC record, open interest was -29.71% on the day and we marked the read held. At the 17:07 UTC record it is +16.70%, with funding still at -0.157342% per 1h and the 7-day mean near -3525% annualised.

That is our own falsifier, firing, in our own words. So we are saying it out loud the same day rather than letting this morning's mark stand as the last thing we published on it.

What it does and does not change. The mark stands: through the fall to 0.37727, open interest left and the condition had not fired. What has changed is now, not then. New positions are arriving into a market that is still charging its short side, and by the rule we wrote that is the shape of a squeeze reloading rather than one that is over.

We are not calling the direction. We did not call the 52% fall either, and we said so when it happened.

The 4h close has moved up to 0.41384 while the daily still reads 0.37727.

Why publish this at all: a falsifier nobody checks is decoration. We set this one in public yesterday, it fired today, and the cost of saying so is smaller than the cost of being an account whose conditions only ever confirm it.
