APT Something is off in these 15 minutes.
-4.33%, the volume surged straight to 10.78x the norm, with a Z value of 3.91. In the 15-minute window, OI dropped by 2.36%, nominal value decreased by 1.65M U, aggressive trading gap was -23.3%, and buy-sell ratio was 0.62.
This looks like typical long de-leveraging, not fresh shorts entering. Price fell, OI declined, and aggressive selling dominated—there’s a strong flavor of stop-loss triggers and forced liquidations.
But what’s interesting is that the 1-hour OI is still +0.40%, and nominal is +687k U. That suggests the earlier batch of positions is still there; what really got cleared was the most recent wave of chase entries.
The OI anomaly percentile is 100%, #1 across the whole pool. It has been continuing across multiple consecutive cycles, and the depth also confirms it.
In this kind of structure, I generally wouldn’t rush to take the other side. I’d wait until OI stabilizes and the pressure from aggressive sell orders is exhausted. Taking it now would be going head-on against the liquidation flow.
