$AAVE These 15 minutes look a little unusual. The price fell only 0.85%, but volume surged to nearly 4 times its usual level. Aggressive trade delta was -24.9%, and the buy/sell ratio was 0.60—clearly, someone is pushing the price down. Even more striking is OI: price down, open interest up, +0.36% over 1 hour, with an anomaly percentile of 98.6%, ranking 7th across the entire pool. This doesn't look like longs giving up and exiting; it looks more like new leveraged shorts entering. The close has just broken below the lower bound of the last 20 or so 5-minute candles, and volume confirms the move. I'm not too comfortable trying to catch it at this level in the short term.
