What Is Open Interest (OI), and How Can It Help Us Observe Changes in Market Leverage?

In the crypto derivatives market, a rising price does not necessarily mean market risk is declining, and a falling price does not necessarily mean all traders are exiting. In addition to observing price and trading volume, Open Interest (OI) is also an important indicator for analyzing market structure.

What Are Long Squeezes and Short Squeezes? Why Can Concentrated Positions Amplify Price Volatility?

In the cryptocurrency market, prices can sometimes surge or plunge suddenly within a short period, even without any obvious new developments. One reason for this is that concentrated leveraged positions can trigger successive position closures or forced liquidations as prices move.
