$INTW Today dropped 9.5%, and the price is back to 26.6. This drop by itself isn’t extreme, but paired with a funding rate of 0.0000 it gets interesting. The fact that it fell quickly but no one was paying to short suggests the shorts aren’t absolutely committed to smashing the price—more likely it’s short-term longs closing out and exiting.
A 0 funding rate during a down move of around 9% is actually rare. In theory, when price plunges quickly, shorts pile up and funding typically turns negative. Now the rate is locked at 0, which indicates that both sides are unwilling to add positions. The longs won’t hold the bag or try to bottom-fish, and the shorts won’t chase. This kind of stalemate often comes down to a balance that can be broken by relatively small amounts of capital. The last time we saw a similar setup was mid-March: after a 7% drop, the funding rate went to zero, and the result was a two-day consolidation followed by a 12% rebound.
When no one dares to make the first move, whoever trades with volume first has the advantage. I’ll watch whether the 27.5 level can hold. If it can reclaim 27.5+ with increased volume, I’d lean toward trying a small long. If it continues to bleed downward on shrinking volume and breaks below 25.5, then don’t catch a falling knife—wait for a volume-confirmation signal.
