If the previous signal was about "whether volume and price are expanding together," the results this time are very straightforward: funds continue to concentrate in a few high-elasticity names.
$STG +62.5%.
This is not just a simple pulse without volume; the trading volume reached 185 million USD, and open interest (OI) directly increased by 127.1%.
More importantly, the funding rate is -0.156%, and the shorts are still paying to hold their positions, making this structure more prone to large fluctuations the longer it drags on.
$BTW +50.8%.
The increase is rapid, with trading volume even more exaggerated at 376 million USD, indicating it’s not just small traders hyping up the market.
OI increased by 88.7%, but active trading leaned slightly bearish, as if the divergence is widening, and the market hasn't reached full consensus yet.
$BEAT +28.9%.
Its highlight isn’t the sharpest increase but the trading volume reaching 446 million USD, making liquidity one of the top three most active.
Active buy orders are relatively strong, but the long-short ratio is only 0.48, indicating many traders are still hesitant to chase, and there’s still a discrepancy in the market.
The downside also has a point worth noting: AXTI -21.0%.
As the price drops, OI actually increased by 104.0%, and the funding rate remains at +0.107%, meaning longs are under heavy paying pressure.
This pattern is more like a forced long structure, where the longer it sustains, the more it tests the market’s capacity to absorb the order flow.
Looking briefly at the Top 4-10: UB +24.9%, EVAA +22.2%, KAT +22.0%, VELVET +21.8%, ESPORTS +21.7%, HMSTR +18.0%, MAGMA +17.8%.
Overall, the atmosphere still revolves around high-beta groupings. The real focus is whether STG can continue to maintain negative funding rates and high OI, and whether BTW can turn divergence trades into sustained positions.
