The most unusual detail in today’s market isn’t the gainers list itself, but the funding rates: $EPIC is up 27.49% over 24h, yet its funding rate is a modest +0.0677%; $GTC
in the same sector is up 21.76%, with a funding rate of -0.6747%, indicating significantly more crowded shorts. This suggests EPIC’s rally has not yet been excessively stretched by leveraged longs, while GTC’s negative funding rate favors a short squeeze but also means longs have already gained the upper hand in the trade, making it less attractive to chase. Comparing relative strength across the board: EPIC’s current pri

$AGT pumped +82%. My bot shorted at 0.68. TP2 hit. ✅️
Here's why the trade was called:
The derivatives data showed a classic trap.
• Funding: +0.1237% (Longs paying a premium)
• OI: +83.14% (The pump was purely leverage driven)
• L/S Global: 1.83 (retail is heavily long)
• Top Accounts: 0.47 (Smart money is short)
·• Taker Flow: 0.17 (Aggressive selling into the pump)
When funding is high, OI is going up, & retail is Long, the squeeze always ends the same way

Does a sharper rise in crude oil necessarily mean a more bullish outlook? $BZ
Guan Ge reminds everyone not to focus only on the rally driven by geopolitical conflicts.
High oil prices weigh on consumption, and the IEA's latest forecast also shows that global oil demand faces significant pressure this year; if supply recovers and reserve releases continue, crude oil could shift from supply panic to trading on weak demand. #NEAR大涨近10%
So I'm more focused on opportunities for a pullback after a spike, rather than going long just because of a big rally. However, supply risks remain high for now,

$AVAAI Breaking out! A great opportunity to go long
AVAAI is showing strong bullish momentum today, up more than 17%, and has broken out strongly on the 1-hour chart. If buyers continue to dominate, I believe there is still room for further upside. The next key target could be 0.0100+. 🔥 $AVAAI Long setup
Entry: 0.0085 – 0.0087
Take profit: 0.0090 / 0.0095 / 0.0100 / 0.0110
Stop loss: 0.0077
As long as the breakout holds, bulls have the advantage. Watch for a retest and confirmation, which could set the stage for the next leg up.

Ondo is the second largest RWA issuer onchain, and its token just dropped 25% in three weeks.
One of those two facts is mispriced, and the chart is about to show which.
Ondo distributed RWA value:
$4.0B
Breakout wick high:
$0.61
Price now:
$0.455
From July to September, $ONDO was trapped under $0.42 to $0.43. Every rally into that zone got sold.
Late September it finally broke through, and that old ceiling is now the floor being tested.
Twice this month sellers pushed price into $0.42. Twice buyers closed it back above $0.44.
The problem is overhead. Since the $0.61 top, every bounce has peake

Hainanese chicken rice—which place makes it best?
Going by the literal meaning, do you think it’s Hainan? NO
People from Hainan have never even heard of this thing.
Later, you learn that Hainanese chicken rice is a masterpiece of the Singaporean people,
so you think Singapore makes it best? NO
The reality is that Hong Kong’s Hainanese chicken rice is the best in the world.
Don’t take things at face value, or even listen to the stories—just follow your heart.
Fuck, I miss Hong Kong so much...

What is it now?
50% of the haters on the timeline say flying Tesla is so trivial everybody can do it.
50% say it’s impossible, so they had to fake it with a balloon or cranes.
This is ridiculous.

ETH rebounded after dropping to 2313! Are the bears starting to lose steam?
Guys, $ETH ETH plunged from above 2800 to a low near 2313, and has now recovered to around 2430. After consecutive declines, a rebound is starting to emerge at these lows. Guan believes the short-term bullish recovery is worth watching.
But it’s too early to call a reversal. The key is whether 2310–2330 can hold. If ETH reclaims 2460 and then breaks above 2500, the rebound could extend further.
In a downtrend, missing out isn’t the biggest risk—going in heavy before confirmation is!

$SOL A whale’s positions have been exposed: long, with both positions in cross-margin mode, holding ETH and SOL together with shared margin. Now that’s interesting—he’s not just betting on SOL; he’s betting that the broader market won’t fall. If it does, losses on both sides pile up, leaving him no chance to close out. His plan is to cut ETH, which has lost the most, first, then wait for SOL to rebound. Just watching it makes me tired. A one-point move in his position is worth more than I make in a year. Just watch this kind of thing—don’t put yourself in his shoes. You don’t know his net wort
