AKE rose 3.75% over this 15m period, with volume at 2.14x, but OI is falling—the 15m futures contract is down 2.55%, and the 1h is down 3.12% too. Price up + open interest down: classic short covering, not new longs entering. Funding rates are still in a high percentile relative to recent levels, taker flow is negative at -3.6%, and the buy/sell ratio is 0.93, so there isn't much sign of aggressive long chasing. With this setup, I'd rather wait for a pullback and confirmation than enter at this level.
