This wave of market movement is indeed fierce. The coin price has surged from a future low point all the way up to $0.1775, with a 24-hour increase of 22.10%, appearing to be a classic breakout trend. Trading volume also did not disappoint, expanding directly to $322 million, and open interest (OI) has soared to $203 million.



But there is a warning to be cautious about—price, volume, and open interest rising together may sound like a healthy trend, but in fact, there are hidden risks. Usually, such a situation results from a large influx of new funds driving the market, but since the increase has already been so substantial, the pressure for profit-taking and locking in gains is definitely building. From another perspective, the current high level is like a mountain peak, which is often the most prone to a slip.

From a technical standpoint, the key support level is set around 0.1520. This area is a dense zone of previous trading activity and also supports the short-term moving averages. The resistance above is at 0.1950, close to the previous high resistance. The current price of 0.1775 is already quite close to the intraday high, making chasing the high at this point very risky. A more prudent approach is either to wait for a pullback to the 0.1520–0.1600 range and gain support before entering with a smaller position on the left side; or wait until the price stabilizes above 0.1950, which could allow the trend to continue, but only if trading volume continues to cooperate.

There is also a detail in the market dynamics worth noting. The sharp increase in OI indicates that the rally is mainly driven by new long positions rather than forced short covering, which is a relatively healthy driving mode. But the key is how it develops next: if the price starts to consolidate sideways or slightly decline, while OI remains high or continues to increase, it suggests that bullish and bearish divergences are widening, and a trend reversal may be imminent; conversely, if the price drops and OI quickly shrinks, it indicates that longs are taking profits, and the momentum of this rise may already be waning. Currently, although volume is large, much of it is driven by FOMO and follow-the-leader trading, which raises doubts about the sustainability of this hot money.

Overall, this rally has its rationality, but we must also acknowledge the risks right in front of us. The market is like this—opportunities and traps are often two sides of the same coin. When caution is needed, it’s best to be cautious; otherwise, the experience of catching the top can be quite unpleasant.

It's the same pattern again—it's easiest to ambush when prices are rising happily. Catching the top to buy in is really a skill; I'm tired of seeing it. Watching OI soar is satisfying, but only when it drops later do you realize the pain. I won't move until it stabilizes at 0.1950; this hot money is too虚. The FOMO market will have to pay back sooner or later.

Don't tell me about health promotion; a 22% increase is just a bait. I've seen through it long ago. Those who buy at high prices are all newbies. Just wait for 0.152, and it's over. Can the FOMO rally continue? Dream on. This wave will definitely fall. OI surge = more bagholders. Listen to me, don't chase. Sideways movement is a signal. You'll be the one crying then.

It's the same story again, a 22% increase with high trading volume. It looks exciting, but are you really willing to take the risk? I'll wait until the 0.152 level before making a move. With so much FOMO buying, it feels like a trend reversal is just around the corner... Those chasing quick profits are actually the most likely to catch the last wave. This move does seem a bit虚, a rise in volume and price isn't necessarily a good sign. I wouldn't chase before 0.195. Money at high levels is the hardest to earn; better to earn less than to buy the bottom at a high price. I've learned this lesson too many times. By the way, with OI increasing so rapidly, if it consolidates later, it will be interesting. Are the bulls really that stable?

A 22% increase with a trading volume of 320 million, this routine is familiar to old hands, a FOMO rally coming in to harvest the leeks. Sideways consolidation at high levels with OI not dropping? That’s just waiting for a split, don’t chase the highs, brother. Before a mountain top slide, it’s always like this. Stand firm at 0.195 before talking. The smell of a capital pump is getting stronger; this hot money is unreliable. That dense area around 0.152 is the real left-side entry point. Buying now is just giving money to the project team.

Chasing highs is a death wish; those who bought at 0.1775 are already regretting it. --- OI has surged, and the bullish and bearish divergences are increasing. A trend reversal is really coming... --- With so much FOMO trading, one dip and everyone will run away. Don’t cry then. --- If the support at 0.1520 doesn’t hold, it’s dangerous. Entering now is just gambling. --- A 22% increase and still chasing? Are you out of your mind? --- Feels like another round of harvesting the little guys. Don’t blame me for the warnings about being trapped at high levels. --- Left-side positioning is indeed safer, but who can precisely hit the bottom? I’ll wait for signals anyway. --- Although the trading volume is large, its quality is questionable. It’s unlikely this wave can sustain. --- Entering at high levels now, tomorrow you’ll be the next sucker... --- If 0.1950 can’t be broken, a correction is coming. Don’t fight the market.

A 22% increase looks great, but I really don't dare to follow this FOMO rally. Those who buy at high levels are all cannon fodder. Now just waiting to see how the Open Interest (OI) moves, feels like it could spike at any moment. Support is at 0.152; I won't look below that. This hot money is really restless; the market liquidity is too虚虚. Chasing highs? Don't even think about it. I don't play games where you lose money. Only when it stabilizes at 0.195 is it considered a trend; right now, it's all talk. With such big daily increases, the market is irrational. It feels like a reversal is coming. Do you guys have that feeling? The left-side positioning strategy is more stable and much safer than chasing highs.

Wow, this wave is really fierce. Just looking at those OI numbers makes me feel a bit uneasy. Those who bought in at high levels are all big fools. I advise everyone not to be overwhelmed by FOMO and lose their rationality. You need to stay above 0.1950 before chasing; otherwise, you're just giving money to the whales. At this kind of time, it's better to wait for a pullback. Small positions are the way to go. It feels like a trend reversal is coming. Can the bulls hold up? That's right. Opportunities and traps are indeed two sides of the same coin. Being cautious won't hurt.

It's the same old story, a 22% increase sounds tempting, but do you really dare to chase? I don't have that courage... It's okay to sell early, but buying at high levels is really uncomfortable. I've been trapped once before and learned my lesson. The surge in OI feels like a trap. Do you guys think that this kind of volume and price increase is especially prone to a sudden reversal? Wait until around 0.15 for a more secure entry. After all, FOMO traders will have to puke it out sooner or later. This market trend is indeed easy to get caught in. Being cautious is never wrong, right? Don't chase anymore, brother. Right now, this position is like a mountain top. Isn't it better to buy the dip after sliding down?
