$ETH This move has something to it.
The price only rose 0.15%, but the 15m trading volume directly jumped to 3.66x. In the past hour, OI increased by more than 200 million U, and the notional change is #1 across the whole pool. This is not something retail traders can create with just a couple of quick trades.
Structurally, it looks like price rising + OI increasing—typical of new leveraged long positions entering. Even though the buy-side aggressive execution gap is only 0.2%, the 5m Binance forced-liquidation proxy liquidated 2.11M USDT, and the buy direction is more concentrated—shorts are getting beaten up.
The abnormal percentile is 86.3%, ranking #35 in the whole pool, yet notional change is #1. What does that mean? The scale is large enough, but it’s not at extreme sentiment levels yet. In situations like this, it’s often not the top—it’s the night before the acceleration.
In 24h, trading volume is 9.2 billion, and liquidity is fine. Multiple consecutive cycles of abnormal OI are continuing, and depth confirms it.
Just watch for now—don’t rush in emotionally.
