Weekend Bitcoin Rally Not a Trend Reversal, Analyst Says
- Price and Futures Divergence: The recent rise in Bitcoin's price over the weekend contrasts sharply with a decline in Open Interest (OI) in futures, which fell from $1.65 billion to $1.55 billion, indicating a lack of new capital support and suggesting a temporary rebound rather than a trend reversal.
- Deleveraging Phenomenon: The analyst highlights that the combination of rising prices, falling Open Interest, and a positive funding rate indicates a deleveraging event, where existing long positions are being closed for profit without significant new leveraged longs entering the market, reflecting ongoing cautious sentiment.
- Market Reaction Phase: The market remains in a cautious, reactive phase; while the price recovery offers short-term relief to holders, it does not signify a robust return of institutional or retail demand, prompting investors to monitor Open Interest changes for trend assessment.
- Trend Reversal Requires New Capital: A genuine trend reversal necessitates simultaneous increases in both price and Open Interest, yet the current rally lacks this structural support, urging investors to remain cautious and seek confirmation signals before interpreting the movement as a long-term bullish indicator.
