Over 4 complete hours, the price plunged 52.97%, trading volume rose to 4.52 times that of the preceding window, while OI contracted 32.38% over the same period: this move in $AIN looks more like concentrated deleveraging than a sustained buildup of new short positions. It is still down 48.37% over the rolling 24 hours. The latest complete 1-hour period rebounded 3.13%, but trading volume fell 59.14% from the previous hour, so the bounce has yet to be confirmed by volume.
⚠️ Both the indicator and the latest settled funding rate are around +0.0050%, with no extreme negative funding rate. Combined with the sharp drop in OI, the available data confirms that positions have been closed, but does not prove that selling pressure has ended. Nor can OI size tell us which side—longs or shorts—exited in greater numbers.
The current price is around 0.1463 USDT. A complete hourly candle reclaiming 0.1609 USDT on increased volume, with OI no longer falling rapidly, would indicate that buying support is strengthening. If the price breaks below 0.1210 USDT while volume picks up again, deleveraging may continue to drive the market.
