Why Doesn’t the Price Necessarily Rise When Open Interest Keeps Increasing?

In the crypto derivatives market, open interest (OI) is often used to gauge the level of market participation.

When OI keeps increasing, some traders believe that more and more capital is entering the market and that a move may be about to begin.

But there is a key question here:

An increase in open interest reflects an increase in open positions, not necessarily an advantage for buyers.

Why?

First, every open contract has both a long and a short side.

In derivatives markets such as perpetual futures, each open

The Fed’s next decision could weigh on crypto.
→ Current rates: 3.75–4.00%
→ 25-bp cut: 86% probability
→ 50-bp cut: 14% probability
My analysis: The market seems to favor a moderate cut.

How can you develop a truly actionable trading plan for BTC?

Many BTC traders study the market every day, analyzing candlestick charts, trading volume, and various technical indicators. They also often discuss whether the market will rise or fall next. But when it comes time to trade, a common problem emerges: there are no clear entry criteria, stop-losses are decided on the fly, and traders don't know when to exit a profitable position.

That's why some people can study the market for a long time yet still see inconsistent account performance.

To build a truly actionable trading plan, you c

What if Jensen Huang really leaves? Three major questions about NVDA’s future that investors must watch!

Rumors about Nvidia’s management have prompted the market to consider a real question: What would happen to NVDA if Jensen Huang really left?
Here are three questions worth watching.
First, could its valuation decline? If investors believe Nvidia is overly dependent on Jensen Huang, they may demand a higher risk discount, weighing on the stock’s valuation.
Second, could its AI strategy change? The CUDA ecosystem, GPU roadmap, data center strategy, and robotics business all require sustaine

Honestly, I personally think that if FB really wants to bring both its price and visibility back, it needs to get listed on a major exchange. It’s not that the project has nothing going for it; it’s that many people outside the community have heard of Fractal but can’t be bothered to register with a smaller exchange and transfer funds there just to buy it. A major exchange can at least bring in liquidity and new users by opening up access to trading. Of course, getting listed doesn’t mean the price will keep rising—it could even become a place for early holders to sell. But without access to a

From Fake Links to Malicious Signatures: How Does a Phishing Attack Steal Assets Step by Step?

In the Web3 world, many asset security problems don’t start with a transfer, but with an apparently ordinary click.

You might receive an airdrop notification, open a familiar project page, or see a message telling you that “your wallet needs verification.” The page looks perfectly normal, even closely matching the official website’s logo, color scheme, and workflow.

But the real risk may be hidden in the button you click next and the transaction you sign.

The most dangerous thing about phishing a

Why Do Profitable Traders Still Experience Consecutive Losses?

Many people believe that once they have mastered an effective trading strategy, they should be able to make money consistently. But anyone who has actually traded BTC knows that even a strategy with positive returns over the long term does not mean every trade will be profitable, let alone that consecutive losses are impossible.

Why does this happen?

First, market conditions are constantly changing. A strategy suited to trending markets may generate frequent false signals in a ranging market, while a method suited to ranging mar

Why Does a Transaction Show as Successful While the Funds Still Haven’t Arrived? Understand These 5 Key Steps

In cryptocurrency transactions, one situation can be especially stressful:

Your wallet shows the transaction as successful, and the blockchain explorer shows the transaction record, but the assets still haven’t appeared in the receiving account.

Some people think the platform has taken their funds, others suspect the transaction failed, and some, worried their assets are lost, rush to transfer them again.

But in reality, a successful on-chain transaction does not necessarily mean t

How to Manage Position Size in BTC Trading?

In BTC trading, many people spend a great deal of time analyzing market direction while overlooking a more important question: even if you get the market direction right, poor position management can still prevent you from achieving the desired trading results.

Why is position management so important?

First, position size determines how much losses affect your account. For the same 2% drop in BTC, a trader with a small position may incur only a modest loss, while a highly leveraged trader with a large position may face severe losses or even forced
