Yesterday I posted a level and it got fulfilled: the 01-10 break was a sweep. QNT rose 9.69% to $278.34 and then gave back almost everything within an hour.
28 of the last 31 hourly candles closed above $252.38, and the high was $278.34: just 0.11% above the map’s 100% zone. From there it reversed 13.30% in an hour, down to $241.31.
And the move wasn’t only price. Open interest had been rising all day, up to 214,483 contracts, and during the sweep hour it dropped 4.47% all at once. The positions that pushed price up to $278.34 were closed in the same move.
Funding ended at -0.3472%, the most negative of the last 200 contract funding payments: the last 10 were all negative, when in that history only 22% were negative. A short pays about 1% per day. That doesn’t tell you where price is going: today the short paid and gained 13% in an hour.
The order book swelled to $3.28 million with daily volume of $370.2 million: 113 rotations per day and 4.50% coverage. Yesterday it was 230, with a book of $2.04 million.
My read: the map already swept its 100% zone and didn’t break it, and the next two closest zones are the weakest (27% and 19%). If it closes above $257.75 with OI rising, the map points back to $278.04. If it closes below $250.29 with OI rising, the next floor is $242.59.
