Today, let’s talk about just three things in futures.

Whether to take this trade—the funding rate is more honest than the candlestick chart.

Futures only care about three sets of numbers. Everything else is noise.

1. BTC 75356, 24h 73510-76200, change -0.57%.
2. BTC open interest notional: 7.22 billion USD, 24h -0.73%
3. Account-wide long/short ratio: 2.85

My take: The funding rate at 0.0090% is close to zero, and the long/short ratio is 2.85. Leverage hasn’t picked a side. If the market hasn’t picked a side, don’t use high leverage to pick one for it.

Execution range (based on current price ± structure, not an old chart):
- Breakout zone: Talk about chasing only after it gets above 75,959; if it doesn’t, it’s a false breakout.
- Buy the pullback: 74,452-74,904; don’t buy if it loses that range.
- No-trade zone: If the 1h candle closes below 74,000, skip this trade.

My position: I only trade pullbacks, not breakout chases. If the structure holds, I can keep a core position; adding requires waiting for the pullback range.

Would you place an order at the pullback level, or wait for the candle to close?

Insight: Once ETH gas rises, on-chain activity tends to cool first, while the derivatives market often moves later.
Idea: 10-year yields are ticking up: valuation stories take a back seat, and spot trades stick to pullback levels.
