Prices have already fallen below the moving average, yet long positions are still stacking higher one layer after another. This is a market where adding more is only making it harder to move—clearly someone is continuing to unload from below. The active sell orders are almost twice the buy orders. Over the past seven hours, the buying momentum has also shrunk significantly. The funding rate is still stubbornly holding in positive territory. Longs are paying the premium and forcing their way through the decline; the longer they hold out, the more decisively the collapse will come afterward. This elevator is already going down—no matter how high the positions pile up, you’re only gathering fuel to accelerate the descent.
