The market mini-show is back: $ICNT 1-hour contract open interest increased by 14.77%; price was up 6.8% over the same period.
Open interest changed, but my position is still zero—I’m just watching from the sidelines.
Seriously, open interest and trading volume are two different metrics: trading volume measures how much was traded over a period of time, while open interest shows how many contracts are still open right now.
Indicators may be inaccurate, but don’t skip your stop-loss: deciding in advance what to do if your judgment is wrong matters more than guessing right.
