How to read ETH open interest and funding
- Price up, OI up — new longs are funding the move. The strongest kind of ETH rally.
- Price up, OI down — shorts are covering. Fast, but often short-lived.
- Price down, OI up — new shorts are pressing.
- Funding deeply negative — shorts are crowded and paying to stay in: fuel for a squeeze if price turns.
- Funding very positive — longs are crowded; late longs can become exit liquidity.
