Como tenho foco mais em futuros para operações curtas, a única coisa que creio é no OI alto e LSR baixo..
Considering he is currently revenge trading at 800m size (20x lev not 40 this time) No. He is likely hedged in other markets, but I would be surprised if he has a crypto hedge of any significant size. Considering we would also hear about a significant sized short + the OI changes there.
tldr; Bitcoin futures open interest (OI) reached a record $80 billion on May 23, reflecting a 30% increase since early May as traders leverage positions anticipating higher BTC prices. This surge in OI indicates significant market speculation, which could lead to volatility if prices move against leveraged positions. Bitcoin briefly slipped below $111,000 after hitting an all-time high of $112,000 on May 22. Analysts note that inflows into Bitcoin spot ETFs, exceeding $2.5 billion this week, may counterbalance the extended leverage in the market. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Where do you see shorts vs longs. I use velo data and it just says total OI
I have seen a lot of charts but never that one. Just use velodata and see that OI is relatively flat. That chart above is kind of worthless to be honest
OI still has barely moved so where do you get the idea that people are shorting aggressively?
OI is basically flat. So what long squeeze are you counting on
Yes, but in the real world, some sellers are covered, and some are not. Even if they own some BTC, they don’t “park” it idly; they use it as collateral or lend it out... So for high open interest (OI) strikes, even if *some* calls are covered, the majority of OI-related gamma hedging still results in spot market demand as price approaches key levels (like $90k or $95k for BTC). (Open Interest is the total number of outstanding (i.e., unclosed) derivative contracts - like options or futures - that are active at a given time.)
Great question — “trading crypto” can mean a bunch of things depending on the person. For some it’s just swing trading majors like BTC/ETH on centralized exchanges. For others, it’s full-on day trading perps, scalping order books, reacting to Twitter/news flow, or doing on-chain plays. Personally, I focus on BTC perps/options and try to build edge from live data like whale activity, Twitter alpha (yep, still useful), and volume imbalances. One thing that helped me a ton was building a custom trading dashboard with all my data sources in one place. I’m not a dev, so I built it with a no-code tool called [https://dynamicdashboard.io](https://dynamicdashboard.io/) — just type in what I want (e.g., “BTC price + tweet stream from 5 accounts + OI chart”) and it builds it. Made my process way faster and more focused. If you’re looking to go from passive holding to active income, figuring out your data flow + process is a solid first step.
Healthy OI rinse. Now let us see which way btc really wants to go
My guess is the manta books were super thin and he was a significant percentage of the OI so that it cost them that much to close the trade. <<<<<This right here. Why don't people use stop losses? I don't understand. But why did binance send him a check? If he liquidated himself, they would just ignore him. Do they think he will just liquidate himself again or are they wrong in some way?
It is the first time I've seen it too. Lets say you're right that it was a thin market and he had a large percentage of OI... it was still closed at a negative price point based on my calculations. I have never seen that before. And the MANTA liquidation was caused by his ORCA liquidation at a time when his margin ratio wasn't even close to 100%. I don't think a stop loss would've helped him in this case because of how early the liquidation happened.
OI is actually pretty low-ish. I would've thought most people would be shorting the fuck out of the market right now.
Not going anywhere? OI and his billionaire buddies will probably find a way to line their pockets with some or all of it eventually.
OI continues to drop. Overall very healthy
tldr; Bitcoin's open interest (OI) has dropped to a four-month low of $49 billion, or 558,914 BTC, as market volatility discourages leveraged positions. This marks a decline from December's $62 billion OI, with Binance hitting a 12-month low. The trend suggests a shift from leverage-driven activity to spot buying, possibly due to volatility or liquidation losses. Bitcoin's price has fluctuated, recently recovering to $90,000 after a 25% drop in February. Analysts predict continued volatility in March, potentially stabilizing by April. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.
Ltf or htf? Btc funding negative and lowest OI in 6 months. CME gap around $93k. March should be good for alts but we shall see
LOL. Check the OI. MMs gonna make sure those expire worthless before allowing price to go up. Strangely most crypto stocks actually have lower PE than big techs.
