Whales are already positioning themselves short while retail traders buy the top after a nearly +30% rally and a strong rejection at the 0.0005980 level. Derivatives data confirms that institutional money is unloading its positions, taking advantage of liquidity from late entrants.
Short Trade Highlights
* Institutional divergence: The Long/Short ratio by large-account positions fell to 0.93, while the overall account ratio rose to 1.21 due to FOMO buying by retail traders.
* Capital outflow: Open interest retreated from its 12:00 peak to 15,439.6M, and its ratio to market capitalization fell to 8.535%.
* Buyer slowdown: Taker volume dried up after selling pressure from 12:00 to 12:15, and funding at -0.05908% is insufficient to trigger another short squeeze.
* Technical breakdown: With RSI(6) overbought at 88.01 (1D) and 80.78 (4H), the 15m MACD crossed down to -0.0000043, and the price lost the 5m EMA(50) at 0.0005303.
