$LSK This pull/pullback tool is kind of interesting.
Price rose and “15m” pulled by +2.61%, but OI actually dropped instead—15m contract -0.22%, and only managed +0.12% on the 1h. Price up while positions fall: a typical short-covering move, not fresh long entries.
Look at the details: volume is 1.52x the norm, volatility Z hits 2.13, aggressive trading gap is +12.5%, buy/sell ratio is 1.29, and the close directly breaks above the recent upper bound of nearly 20 5m candles. OI’s percentile is abnormally high at 97.8%, ranking #3 across the whole pool, and it has been continuing across multiple consecutive periods.
In plain terms, shorts are being squeezed—and squeezed pretty hard. 24h trading value is only 19.44M, the pool isn’t deep. With this kind of structure, the price elasticity from shorts closing out can be very strong.
But note this is cover—not building new positions. The breakout isn’t backed by OI, so the sustainability is questionable. If you’re chasing longs, weigh it carefully—don’t end up being the last baton that lifts the shorts’ chair.
