$BTC SETTING A TRAP? OPEN INTEREST SPIKES AS PRICE BLEEDS 🚨
At first glance, Bitcoin’s structure still looks ugly — lower highs, weak momentum, and no clean reclaim yet. But under the surface, something interesting is brewing.
As Bitcoin continues to grind lower over the last few hours, Open Interest is moving UP, not down. That divergence is key. It signals that bears are piling in aggressively, adding fresh shorts and betting hard on a breakdown below current levels.
This is exactly how squeeze setups are born. When price drops but OI expands, it often means leverage is skewing one way. If downside fails to follow through, those crowded shorts can quickly become fuel — not pressure.
Market structure? Still fragile.
Positioning? Starting to look one-sided.
In low-liquidity conditions like weekends, it doesn’t take much to flip the script. A sharp bounce could force bears to cover fast.
Is this just another leg down…or the kind of setup that punishes consensus?
