Spot–Futures Divergence Ranking

Over the past hour, first separate the sources of buying pressure: is spot following through, or are futures driving the pace?

$ETH Short-covering explains the speed of this move, but for it to continue, we’ll need to see whether spot buying and new positions step in.

Shorts covering first explains the speed. Whether prices can hold from here depends on continued buying support.
