$EPIC This wave isn't just a simple rally; new positions are being forcibly pushed in.

In 24 hours, it has increased by 38.66%, reaching a high of 0.4975, with the lowest still at 0.2919.
Trading volume hit $130.2 million, but open interest (OI) is only $5.5 million.
This indicates a small market size, with fierce trading, and prices are easily amplified when pushed.
The most eye-catching is the 24-hour increase in OI by 71.5%.
New positions are not gradually entering; they are rushing in all at once.
However, 1-hour OI has slightly decreased by 0.3%, indicating that some traders above are starting to loosen their grip, with chasing and cashing-out funds fighting.
The fee rate is -0.0094%, with shorts paying fees.
The long-short ratio is 0.99, retail traders are almost evenly split.
But the large account long-short ratio is 1.57, clearly indicating that top accounts are more biased toward longs, a structure usually not created by retail traders alone.
The key levels are simple.
If the price can stay around 0.444 and OI does not significantly decline, it suggests this squeeze hasn't dispersed.
If OI starts to drop and the price falls back below 0.40, then the logic of "new positions driving the rally" needs to be reconsidered.
