Both longs and shorts are waiting; let the futures market settle down for a bit.

For futures, I only watch positioning crowding, not group chat messages.

Check positioning crowding first, then price.

BTC open interest notional: $7.27 billion, 24h -2.45%
Account-wide long/short ratio: 2.89
BTC 73109 (-1.26%), ETH 2029 (-1.38%).

Funding rate is 0.0046%, close to zero; long/short ratio is 2.89. Leverage has picked no side. If it hasn’t picked a side, don’t use high leverage to pick one for it.

Key levels: upside 73,694, downside 71,793. Keep one-sided exposure below 2x account equity, and place stops beyond the structure—not at a round-number price that just feels right.

Open interest is already down 2.45% over 24h. Only if it falls further while price holds above the 24h low can we say the flush is over—not yet.

Would you dare add to your position at this funding rate?

Useful insight: The long/short ratio based only on account counts can be misleading; the ratio of large-holder positions is a better gauge of actual crowding.
Food for thought: The dollar strengthened over 5 days while BTC also rose: treat this as an independent move, and discount its staying power.
