$AKE This wave in the 15m timeframe was drawn quite decisively: price +1.52%, and volume surged straight to 2.18x. The closing price even poked through the upper band of nearly 20 of the 5m candles.
What’s interesting, though, is the OI: 15m -0.30%, 1h -0.53%. Price is up while open interest is down—classic short-covering momentum, not new longs entering. The proportion of aggressive buys is 3.6%, and the buy/sell ratio is 1.07, suggesting the willingness to chase is only so-so. It looks more like shorts were squeezed and forced to liquidate rather than fresh long positions coming in.
The abnormal percentile is 81%, ranking 8th across the whole pool, and the notional change also made it into the top 30. In the past 24h, trading value is a bit over 60M, and liquidity depth is more than sufficient—this move isn’t just a feint.
The question now is: after the shorts have covered, who’s going to take over? If OI keeps falling and price can still hold up, then maybe there really are players buying on the spot side. If OI drops and price also rolls over, then it’s just a one-off burst.
For now, keep an eye on whether that 5m upper band can hold. If it can’t, then it’s a fake breakout.
