Today, just three points on futures

Before price speaks, keep leverage quiet.

Check how crowded positions are before looking at price.

BTC open interest notional: $7.67 billion, 24h -2.05%
Account-wide long/short ratio: 1.28
BTC 83,456 (-0.34%), ETH 2,505 (-1.18%).

Price barely moved (-0.34%), but open interest fell -2.05%. That’s position reduction, not accumulation. The next move hasn’t picked a direction yet.

Key levels: upside 84,124, downside 81,954. Keep one-way exposure below 2x account equity. Place stops beyond the structure, not at round-number levels that just feel right.

Open interest is already down -2.05% over 24h. Only if it falls further while price holds above the 24h low can we say the flush is over—not yet.

Useful to know: When mark price and index price diverge, liquidations hit the thinner side first.
