$AERO Something feels off about this chart.
The 15m volume surged to 3.87x, yet price broke down. The lower boundary of the past 20 5m candles gave way just like that. Aggressive trade imbalance was -46.4%, and the buy/sell ratio was 0.37—real selling pressure was hitting the market.
But the interesting part is OI: -0.05% over 15m and -0.39% over 1h, with notional value down by over 1 million U. Price down + OI down doesn't point to new shorts entering; it looks more like longs deleveraging and stop-losses getting swept. The anomaly percentile has hit 98%, ranking #5 across the entire pool.
With this kind of setup, I'm usually reluctant to chase shorts. Yes, price has fallen, but leverage is being flushed out—not shorts adding to their positions. I'll wait for this round of deleveraging to finish and see if anyone steps in.
